Hello All,
I'm new here, so please bare with me!
I have just got rid of my sky subscription and I'm looking to do these things:
The Box:
I would like to record 1 channel and watch another, with the possbility of using Freeview HD too.
I like the VU+ Solo2 with an internal HD (shame they only take 2.5"...got loads of 3.5's here spare!), but can I add freeview HD to that or FreeSat HD?
Unless I can receive HD channels via other methods, scrap the FreeView/FreeSat idea!
I want to view my programs or whatever on my tablet, hence the solo2.
Somebody recommended me the Amiko Alien 2 but the Solo2 looks much better (I like the QWERTY remote with the white one!)
The Dish:
Currently have the sky minidish, but I would like to receive more satellites. Using http://www.dishpointer.com/ I can see that there are 3 sats between 29 and 13 degrees. My question is; should I upgrade the dish or/and can I just add more lnbs? I really don't want to add a motor atm lol.
Also how difficult is it to point at the satellites, time is not a issue lol!
Is there anything else I would need?
Much appreciated!
