Not sure if I can ask this but here goes anyway. I'm looking to buy a SV 8000 but just not sure where to get one. I now have a premier with hub but would kind of like to upgrade. Any help would be appreciated.

The 8k is discontinued.
Find a used one at that famous auction site

like mentioned earlier, visit that famous auction site that starts with E. You can find one there for a fairly decent price.

Yup FleaBay ! :-) Be carefull though, ask the seller alot of questions and make sure you see several actual pictures of the receiver that is for sale and not just a stock picture... Request a picture of the inside of the receiver to see what version the 8psk module is.. you do not want a two piece orginal 8psk module.. some auctions will try to hide the fact the receiver has the old two piece style module in them... I'v bought a few lemons from FleaBay.. its buyer be ware.. with the SV8000 discontinued for years, I'v noticed the majority of the SV8000 reselling have issues or can be lemons, is my experiencec I'v had buying SV8000 in the later years after they have been discountinued... be very dilligent when buying a used SV8000 on Flebay.. is my advice from my past experiences..
hope this helps.. good luck.

I have a Sonicview 8000 HD and later on iHub since the fisaco started to end. I'm so out of the loop now that I don't really know what to do with it. Can someone let me know what I can do with it now or should I just unload it?
