I went to UK and bought it at Argos. Got cheap flight with Ryanair! Prices are coming down now for the Humax Foxsat HD box. Note the Humax Foxsat HDR box (internal hard drive for recording) is now available but very difficult to buy as its in high demand, cost about £295.

Don't know if this helps but you can view the full user manual for the Humax Foxsat-HDR digital Freesat+ (its over 100 pages though!!) at :- _http://www.humaxdigital.com/freesat/support_manual.asp

I'm in Catral, Costa Blanca. Recommendation with the Humax Freesat box for Costa Blanca is to use a Jersey postcode to get a stronger signal. I used the Jersey post office postcode which is JE2 6QN. I get all the channels (1.9m dish) but Ch4 & BBC2 break-up at 11.30pm and are sometimes not...

Thanks PaulR...problem was the Humax being set on S-Video, have changed this & it records fine.:)

I'm trying to record a TV channel on my Video recorder. Its connected via scart lead to my Humax Freesat box. I can playback a tape OK, but when I try to playback something I've recorded direct from the TV all I get is multicoloured pixels. I wish to record a programme I'm currently watching. My...

You need to decide what digi-box you're going to use; if you say "freeview" then you can buy a PVR (Personal Video Recorder ...thats a digi-box with a built-in hard drive to record one channel when you watch another). Buy the digi-box in UK from the forum supporting advertisers. If you want...

Woburny, Thanks for the info - most useful. I've got the jist of what a UPS will do by searching for them on UK websites. I need to buy one here in Costa Blanca for around the 80€ you suggested, but I'm not sure what they're called in Spanish - can you advise, and do you recon MediaMart would...

SatplusTV, Suggestion : please put your details under the section "installers" . Thanks

Woborny I'm in Costa Blanca and was wondering when you have a power cut, does your Humax box automatically re-set itself or do you have a lot of re-setting to do? We get a pwer cut at least twice every week, typical of Spain, sometimes for 5 secs, sometimes for around 1 hour. Thanks

Supershaw I'm in Albatera but in the town. I'm waiting for Lee from Lee-digital (comes recommended) to visit, but he's got hundreds on his waiting list! Was hoping to find someone close to me who has 1.4m dish on their roof and see what Freesat channels they received, hopefully via a Humax...

Supershaw Have you made any progress.....I'm in the same area as you?? What size dish have you got (if any) yet?
