The Newest Free To Air FTA Receivers

The Viewsat Ultra FTA Free To Air Receiver

The new Viewsat Ultra is one of those products that really brings something a bit special to the market and makes all the competition start to upgrade their products. The latest model has some really good features that are a real improvement over it's predecessor. One of the most obvious is the memory which has double the capacity of the old model. With 32MB of SDRAM the new Ultra is definitely at the cutting edge of the new models.

This gives it a real edge, but it also has a really powerful processor that is superfast and will make sure that everything loads as quickly as possible. The picture quality that you get with the Viewsat Ultra is also improved by the use of such great components and you get a really clear picture that will be better than most of it's contemporaries. The picture also owes some of its clarity to the S Video features.

One of the more useful features that it has is the on screen program display. In full color, this will help you to find your favorite programs and channels easily and is a great time saver. The seven day program menu is a really good way to plan in advance for those programs that you do not want to miss.

The tuning set up is fairly easy and the fine tuning is automatic which is very useful. The audio viewer in the radio channels is a great feature and will add to your listening enjoyment. It is also MPEG2 and DVB ready and has a great zoom picture feature. It even has it's own video games and supports 15 languages along with VBI and OSD teletext. The on screen display is very much like your computer and as such is very easy to understand, even as a new user. There is also an advanced and easy to use upload system to make it even faster and more convenient. Upgrades are via a USB and this makes them quick and easy to do. There is a favorite channel selector which means that you do not need to keep searching for your favorite channels.

The casing is good and it looks as though it built to last. The ultra looks great and is well worth checking out if you are upgrading. The Viewsat Ultra is definitely one of the best machines around and is well worth the money. There are others in the price range that are good, but the Ultra is really the best and is good value as well.

HoustonPBS 8.1 Letterbox sometimes/sometimes notAnyone have any contacts at KUHT in Houston? On the OTA HD channel (not one of the SD subchannels) they seem to broadcast some programs in 16:9 and some letterbox 4:3 (basically pillarbox + letterbox). Not really a problem because my 622 can zoom it, but it makes me wonder why? Laziness?
