Hi,

Which receivers have 'low-threshold' or high tolerance in building watchable PQ from grabbing a rather weak signal? I read that Dreamboxes are not sensitive, also some sky digiboxes are more sensitive than others.
What part of the receiver does it depend on? Can that part be replaced for a better one, as in 'hardware hacked'? What if it's made out of gold? Or is it a matter of software?
