The newer TM5402 M4 will do exactly what you want. Once you have it fully upgraded using the official TM firmware you should be good to go.

If there’s nothing wrong with your M2 I’d hold onto it though. Was there anything else you needed a newer model to do.

What are you expecting to receive in Spain? If you want all the UK channels then you will need a large dish, the size depending whereabouts in Spain you are.

The two dishes are probably for the reception of different satellites.

I upgraded to the MK3 from the early version, it has the same operating system but is a lot faster on the blind scan.
