Vu duo motor issues

Plenty of s/h boxes on the internet. Gumtree has a few depending where you live.

The VU+ Duo is an old receiver, you can pick up some very good replacements, like the Octagon series, and many others, for a lot cheaper than you bought the VU+ Duo, and it will have a lot more features.

The Octagon SF8008 is a great box for the money.

Thanks will take a look. Just need something half decent with PVR features. Even HD is fine as she doesnt sub to the movies/etc on Skylink, just the general entertainment channels.

Second hand is fine, but has to be delivered so will check eBay. My wifes a front line Nurse, so don't want to break lockdown for a Sat box. More for the sake of the seller, as we're probably higher risk :(
 
World of Sat have the OCTAGON SF8008 S2X for £105. Would rather spend less given she will only use if for SkyLink but tempted to get it over and done with :D

Presume that takes external USB HDD only?
 
It might be able to take two since there are a pair of ports on the case
 
Only need one. Would just prefer if it was internal to save clutter/space in comms cupboard.

Hmmm doesn’t look like it has a CAM slot. Not sure I want to mess around with soft cams since I have a CW CAM and card.
 
Wat about the Zgemma H9 Twin. £89.99 on world of sats and has CI slot and twin tuner.
 
It's made in China therefore not something I would buy.
