My System: Sky UK. FTA analogue & digital satellite from 6 fixed dishes (5E/7E/9E/10E/13E/16E/ 19E/23E/28E) Pace MSS100, Echostar IP3000VA, Technomate TM-1000D, Dreambox 7020S

Both Amstrad and Grundigs are notorious for capacitor failure in the power supply system. Grundigs are probably the worst for this.

Without the actual model numbers (on a sticker on the bottom of them) its hard to say which one is the newest
