My System: Force D master 1122 sky digibox with freeview card. 80cm dish with motor
what receiver should I buy

The time has come to rid myself of my very old but still functional Force D master and get something a little more up to date. I have no experience of current patchable technology nor have I seen anything here in france that can cut the mustard so to speak. Can anyone please steer me in the direction of a new box that can pretty much unlock all and also drive my Crytik polar mount motor through the coax.
I might add that my pc is nowhere near my current setup so a usb connection although possible would be difficult. Oh yes, I am on a budget of about 200quid.
any suggestions highly valued
best regards

My System: Pace Sky HD, DM7000s, CubeRevo 3000HDPVR, Transparent 80cm Dish, Moteck SG2100 DiseqC motor, lots of legacy gear. Meters: Satlook Digital NIT, Televes H45 Digital Spectrum analyser.

Why not have a look in the Dreambox section, you can connect by wireless bridge, so proximity to the computer is not an issue.

You are being a tad optimistic looking for a box "that can pretty much unlock all".

Thanks for the reply Rolf. Perhaps I am being somewhat optimistic about my unlocking all way of thinking. It just shows my ignorance of such matters. Perhaps I may suggest something a little different. For example, if I took the technomate route or something similar is is at all likely that Tps, multivision and Digitalb may very well appear with a little patching.........as far as proximity of pc to receiver goes, hey I can sort something I'm sure

My System: Technomate TMS-1500 CI+ "patched" receiver, 90cm p/f 36v motorised dish, Inverto C120 0.3db LNB, Moteck V-Box 2, Packard Bell 6052 XP Home computer, Toshiba A60 laptop, and lots of Russian Vodka !

TPS, Multivision, Premiere may well appear with a Technomate, if fact they are open at the moment, but Digitalb I don't think so.
Still if you had everything at once won't life get boring.
