I am hoping to upgrade my sat TV system shortly as C4 only is a bit limiting and I do miss Auntie!
With F2V what happens if I change boxes and in particular move to a SKY + box so as to record (say) ITV whilst watching BBC as I often did in the UK? (Is a SKY + box a good choice in fringe areas?). Do I need a second subscription to F2V or a SKY subscription or is there a better way altogether. Here in Lanzarote we are on the very edge of 2D and need to get it right to get it at all. I am aware I would need a second LNB & cable but as I have to upgrade my box I would like to try and get it right. Would I be better with two boxes, a recorder & a second subscription? In relative terms the sat dish is the major investment (2.4m minimum & maybe even 3.4m is required) but with a quad LNB if it all works I think I can "sell" shares in the system as I have neighbours in the same boat as I am in.
Any advice will be much appreciated.
