[QUOTE="billnot, post: 89760, member: 176016"] The reception conditions in Portugal and the Costa Blanca are different. That could explain the different experiences - after all, we're comparing what we all agree are both excellent boxes. Zansi, the Thomson 4210 performs well here. But so does the Grundig 310, which isn't well regarded elsewhere. OTOH, we have never had particularly good results with Panasonics, especially when it comes to Channel 4. I have both Pace 3100 and 3000 Sky + boxes. The 3000 is "out of the box" and the 3100 upgraded to 160Gb. They seem to perform virtually identically and are on a par with the DS430N. If anything the 3000 has the edge over the 3100, but not enough to make any practical difference. [/QUOTE]
