    DUO 2 Tuners ??

    My duo2 currently has two twin satellite tuners, fitted by WOS as ordered on purchase.
    I have recently had cable installed. Questions are: Can I fit a cable tuner in the spare slot, and How difficult is it.
    Or is a usb tuner a viable option.
    Any help or advice appreciated.

    Sorry to be pedantic, but if you have a spare slot then you only have One Twin Tuner installed, not 2 twin tuners.
    Yes you can install a cable tuner in the spare slot, i would go for a Dual Tuner here also, it is very easy to do, a USB tuner is also a viable option but internal is the way to go.
    As for actually accessing your VM subscription that is very hard to do.

    Yes correct, but if both slots are used you will need to remove a tuner module. Duo2 has TWO slots for tuners.

    Big Thanks for the help. I've ordered a twin tuner. Thanks Sicilian for the link.
    Looks like I'm in for hours of fun with the VM stuff.
    Thanks again.
