We all know ......... ??


I have two Skybox F3s and, despite the odd quirk, they have proved to be pretty decent Receivers.

Some thought has gone into the openbox, blind scan and opening certain multi streams is a step forward :)

:DI've spent a fortune on this hobby in the last year, just of top of my head I can rack up at least £700, if I had the money spare I would buy one, but I need two new actuators £200 I also need to finish my garden fence and drive £600+ then a new kitchen and three piece suite £6G:eek:

True digi, but unfortunately the wife would prefer a new fence drive kitchen and sofa rather than an openbox, once all these things are sorted I can start saving again and get what I want happy days:)

90cm motorised dishes(98x90)+fixed+multiLNB+24Unicable.
Currently 56 satellites, 61°West to 57°East.

Octagon SF8008 4K Twin, VU+Duo², VU+Ultimo4K.
Recycled as the owner.

North of Madrid (28703 Spain) -3Km of IKEA (40.545847, -3.612012).:-)
A small clarification.
The tuner with blind search is DreamBox500+ (plus), not specified (DB500S).
Satellite Tuner, single/dual used in Vu+DUO2 has a problem with low SR, SR2000 limited to a minimum, can tune until SR1950 either by tolerance, by the upper smoothly until SR45000.
You have 2 tuners on Vu+DUO2, a DVB-T/C and a DVB-T2/T/C.
Buyer beware.
-------------
Una pequeña aclaracion.
El sintonizador con busqueda ciega es la DreamBox500+(plus), no la indicada (DB500S).
El Sintonizador de Satelite, sencillo/dual usado en los Vu+DUO2 tiene un problema con los SR bajos, esta limitado a SR2000 como minimo, pudiendo sintonizar hasta 1950 bien por tolerancia, por la parte alta sin problemas hasta SR45000.
Tienes 2 sintonizadores en Vu+DUO2, uno DVB-T/C y otro DVB-T2/T/C
Cuidado al comprar.

If anyone wants to save a bit on ordering the Sx6 I highly recommend ordering from Sergey at lobster.ee I was a bit concerned doing a bank transfer but all was fine and it seems I will be getting mine tomorrow or Friday. Sergey is very helpful and quick at responding to emails. Even with my banks charge of £8 on top it was worth it to me anyway to save £15 or so, Total cost was £121...
