I've been very impressed with my new Dr.HD F15 for picking up weak signals. Having to work with dishes too small for their location as they are on a small balcony in Helsinki I'm constantly trying to get the last drop of signal from various satellites. I absolutely love my original TM6900 (non-Super) but it is pretty deaf compared to the F15. Having seen all the extra channels coming in without any breakup on the F15 I don't feel like my TM6900 is up to the job any more.

I prefer the TM firmware (seems more reliable than the F15's) and I really miss the DVB-T side so although unlikely, I wondered if anyone had experience with the new-ish TM6902 and if it can compare to the F15 for reception?

Are tuners plug and play? Maybe you can swap them over?

I don't think so, certainly not without a soldering iron anyway. I'd probably just end up blowing both receivers up. ;)
