    Astra 2G: Iberia & Balearics Reports

    I've just come back from Mallorca and ITV HD Granada was on 24/7 no pixelation, I haven't touched since I was there at the end of March and I didn't take my meter so all I can say is that my Humax box was showing 70% quality where it was only showing 60%, could this be caused by the equinox or...

    Foxsat HDR versus HDR 1100s

    Currently have the Foxsat HDR in Mallorca and it performs well, it's just that my HDR 1100 may soon be redundant in the UK and I was wondering if there would be any benefit in moving it to the sun, just trying to optimise everything. I'll probably take it and try it and find out that way . Maybe...

    Advice Needed HDR 1000s not recording

    I've had that before on a Thomson sky box , but the power supply to this is external so it's only a nominal voltage in the box itself . I'm not 100% clued up on these things , so could the fault be with the external power supply ? Everything else seems to be working ok ,even the on demand since...

    Advice Needed HDR 1000s not recording

    sometimes the disk space usage would say 1% with no recordings and at other times 20% usage with no recordings , tried the factory default which would cure the problem for a while ,then it got worse till it refused. Spoke to Humax and they said it was most probably the hard drive itself . So...

    Which is best 1.8M dish in Spain - Offset or PF ?

    I bought mine from Sematron in the UK , they are the importers. As they don't retail in the UK they were happy to supply me. 5 years ago I paid just under £410.00 inc vat. I was shipping some items to Spain to my apartment anyway so that's how it got there, but there are other means. If you want...
