So how fast is the blind scan now? I loved the look and feel of the Optibox software compared to anything else I've used, but the slow and buggy blind scan was a deal-killer (and the Raptor was just too expensive since FTA isn't my primary source of TV.)

Hi jim, I havent tested it yet but as i have been told the Blind Scan speed on Gekko and Anaconda cannot really be improved much, because of the Chipset limitation. It would be good if someone from the forum test it.
From now on we will use modified SW s of Atemio 500, Octagon sf918 and Atemio 7500. You will be able to install them on your boxes without changing the ID.
I will keep providing updates and "support" for these boxes.
