    Using a Unicable II LNB with an FBC tuner is highly recommended if you want to get the full functionality out of the tuner.

    These days there aren't any 4 tuner boxes, so FBC is the only option for 4+ tuners. So you are looking at GB quad 4k or GB UE 4k, or Vu+.

    There are only very few 4k broadcasts, but there are many other sources of 4k material, e.g. IPTV.

    All FBC boxes are also 4k.

    Well at least that solves the issue of a bewildering range of choice of boxes...

    Of the 2 giga,s unless there is something that specifically grabs you on the gbuhd4k, then the gbue4k is the more cost effective box.
