Eurovox waste of money? - Techwatch Support Forums: Digital & Satellite TV, FTA, Cable, Computers, Mobile Phones, Apple and General Tech Forums

Hi,
I am 2 minds as to whether or not I should buy a new Eurovox.
My last one dies a death and I have been without one for a while.
I read somewhere that its pointless buying a new one now as we will only get a few months usage out of them due to Nagra 3………WTF does this mean?
Regards,
Alan

Yes, N3 will be imeplemented everywhere in the UK within the next 6 months me thinks. Put that cash towards a satellite set up

Could you suggest what I should buy for that?

I\'m not sure what satellite equiment would be best as I haven\'t been researching into it yet. There\'s a satellite section on this forum so have a ganders there and see what you can find out

If N3 is delivered into your area all boxes will be doorstops.
