Those look like dvb-t connectors for an OTA tuner box. It is probably the stock photo from the manufacturer. Of no use here in the USA.

Rick is a liar unless he can prove what he says. Seems I remember Rick saying he was going to sue or seek legal action against another company for saying he had clone Az receivers? X2 May seek legal action against Rick!

Here's an interesting post (especially the last line) by Rick about the AZBox clones (posted 06/23):

Relevant quote:

"The company that made the Original AZ Boxes went out of business quite a while back, so that is why I don't sell them any more.

"Beware of the AZ Clones that are on the market. If you get one that will actually do 4:2:2, they are made of cheaper parts. I purchased one of the clones from China and it does do 4:2:2, but upon inspection, it is made quite a bit cheaper with lower quality parts and I don't know how long they will last, compared to the High Quality of the original units and I decided not to sell them."

Yes, that was my setup for that dish in 2008. Two of the locations it pointed at no longer have Ku satellites (74 and 79). Dish has been through many configurations since then. Currently it just has 2 LNBs on it, pointed at 89 and 99.
