Hi,
For the past 10yrs I've been using a Gigablue Quad plus, the only trouble is that it doesn't have streaming.
Could a fellow member advise if it's worth purchasing a 4k streaming box.

Hi, Channell Hopper, thanks for your reply.
There are many channels that I would like to receive on 9 & 5 degrees which have a lot of streamed services of which I can't receive on my Gigablue.

The Lyngsat site offers links to channels that can be received with a laptop or mobile phone.

Yes, I meant multi streaming.
I like to watch sports such as tennis, skiing etc via hotbird & astra (19.2).
However, I would like to watch thr Supertennis channel again which moved from hotbird to eutelsat (9 degrees) about three years ago & now is only available on multiscreen receivers I understand.

Multi streaming as in the satellite transmission format?

Supertennis is transmitted on the 9B Italian spot beam - its not available in the UK.

As for your questions about multistream boxes, thats a personal decision. Are the channels you want to watch available on multistream on a beam that you can receive? If they are & you fancy a new challenge go for it.
