Hi Bill, you are better off sticking with the VAST as this is Aurora and that system will be swiched off within a couple years.

The card is for GWN, WIN (WA) and all SBS & ABC around the country.

You are aware of the cheapie $20 & free postage  ciggy lighter inverter?  I have ordered one for the VAST box I have just installed.

Cheers Neil

I have a Strong 12v Aurora Satellite decoder with remote for anyone with a need for one.

You just need to (a) collect from Pinjarra WA or (b) pay postage, approx $10 - $15 I reckon.

Works perfectly, I have upgraded to VAST now.

Cheers Neil

Thanks for the info. I have just bought a 300w inverter to run my vast box.How many watts does the box use? I worked it out at 76 w , which is 6.5 amps at 12v. Bill

I'm not sure Bill, I have fitted the decoder now so can't see the back panel where power requirements may be written.  Once I get my inverter I will be able to read usage off a meter.  I'll let you know then.
