I was interested in the Dreambox 7020 but I don't know if it is me but the website isn't very consumer friendly. There is a list of comprehensive specifications and technical info but all I really want to know is will it work with the BBC/ITV Freesat service and receive all channels that service offers.
I must admit that this is why I've not done this. What I really want to know is: - What do I need on my wall in terms of a sat dish - What do I need between it and the Dreambox - Which Dreambox do I need to do a broadly similar job to Sky+
My girlfriend has just moved in and is tied into a contract in her old house which she will be moving to mine. Apparently the dish stays where is is but she's free to move the Sky+ box, so my interest is mostly curiosity for my own use - but that said I'm tempted to get a local dish installer to install a new dish rather than Sky, if by doing so I get something more functional for the future (multiple LNB's, for example).
Then again, as I mentioned at the start of the thread I have a client asking me about them so I'd like to have something to tell him. So far I've worked out that Dreambox seem to be much better than the others, and that if I buy a cheap dreambox I'm probably buying a cheap fake.
