    4K box - Advice Please

    Hi guys, been looking at upgrading so I can receive 4K channels.
    I currently have an XTrend ET8500 with 3 tuners (1 on my motor and 2 on 28e) which I have had for 4 years and absolutely love.
    It's been a while since I've looked at new sat hardware so wondering if there's a 4K equivalent or similar that would give me the same functionality.
    I would even consider changing the config to have 2 boxes if cheap enough but I love the convenience of everything in one box.
    I had looked at the Zgemma H7S which says it has 2 tuners, but unsure if I can have 1 on my motor and 1 on 28e (which would be my minimum requirement)

    Any advice or pointers to threads greatly appreciated.
    Thanks for your help

    This would be your best option >> https://www.world-of-satellite.co.uk...blue-uhd-ue-4k

    Otherwise it would be the Vu+ Ultimo 4K but more than double the price of the Gagablue.

    Ahhh so the PnP tuner can also be a Sat tuner too? I thought it could only be Cable or DVB-T
    That looks like a nice box... thanks mate

    Yeah the PnP tuner will take either a Single or Twin Satellite Tuner.
