a friend of mine can get one for £100 on discount. can anyone tellme if they are worth buying say comparred with other makers HD models. To me the normal price of £130 is cheap for a HD reciever so i assume yu missing something say the Humax HD has. He wants the reciever for 19E 28E and 13E

It'll work fine on those 3 birds - mine does.

You can't do as much with this as you can with other boxes - it's not patchable, does not like (and Pace won't guarantee) any form of cards that are not certified DVB compliant.

Having said all that, I've had mine about 9 months, it gives a great picture, superb sounds and most importantly of all, keeps SWMBO happy with the stuff she wants to watch from 13E.

I'ts been a great introduction box for me, when I move I'll be having a motorised dish for myself and a box thats a bit more "flexible".
