My System: Sky+, DB 7000s, Gemini 4.3 in flash, Var on USB stick. Transparent 80cm Dish, Moteck SG2100 DiseqC motor, lots of legacy gear. Meters: Satlook Digital NIT, Unaohm EP313, Swires Annie 204 Spectrum, Rover ST-4 Spectrum.

The Amstrad which you have is one of the very first release, so unfortunately its going to be slow, my sister has one and it is equally slow.

Its more likely to die first Pov. but whilst there are no plans as far as I know, to change the LNB or tuner frequencies, it may well be too slow for some services eventually.

They may do if you threaten to cancel when it breaks again.
