[QUOTE="giraffe, post: 1054433, member: 401316"] Just looking for advice on purchasing 2 sat recievers, 1 - Main living room - thinking Mutant HD51 (everyone here seems to rate them?) with x2 S2X tuners (or german version from SatKing). I also have a Strong TNT box bought on last holiday in France with a 4 year activated card - would this work in another enigma box as the software is not too good but to be fair it has a great picture? Would like to add HDD for recording - then add cron job to backup files to my NAS nightly (once I increase storage again). Budget up to £200. The Octagon keeps being mentioned but I can't find any details of the actual launch date for the replacement for the 4008? Is it worth waiting for it? 2 - Bedroom - thinking VU+ Zero 4k or the android powered Formula S Mini? or if not 4k then the Edison os nino looks pretty good. Just looking for snappy box, recording not required. Budget £100ish, but a bit more for 4k is ok under the pretence of future-proofing :) Currently have Skybox F5. My set-up - Zone 2 minidish (although I've been looking at the Peta dishes today so a second dish might follow...) Multi LNB set-up at the weekend with 2 LNBs on 28.2 (Quad visiblewave) and 19.2 (single inverto eco (bought when they were cheap!), which is just replaicating my previous set-up before I moved. I've ordered an Octicum twin LNB for 19.2 (and a Konig 4 way Diseqc) as I want two feeds of 19.2 which I will swap out at the weekend. Then I'm hoping to add a 13.0 (hence the post for a good sat finder!). Applogies for the ramble :) Any advice greatly appreciated! [/QUOTE]
