We must be lucky here in London, the glitching is not as bad............yes it is not as good a service as pre-shutdown. So I will roll with it until it finally dies on us!!

Yep, looks like this box too will become a door-stop, just like the eurovox.
Would like to go sat, if anyone would care to drop me a pm as to where and what to buy, would be most grateful.
Lindy.

Thanks e45 Noticed that you went down the dreambox road rather than the Blade, is that just personal preference, or is the dream a better buy?

tongs007,

When you get sorted on the sat front can you please let me know (a PM will do) as I'm looking to go down that route too. KV was great in the first year I had it but it's never recovered since the April issues and the frequent loss of the Kids stuff sends the Flybee Jnrs into a mini-rage. I'm just up the road from you in Tyneside and I'd be keen to see how you get on.

Ta much F

dreambox is open sourced as many different groups can do a fix with a different image,blade box is closed as only the fix can come from the makers of that box,same as starview only do some fixes for their boxes ,and kryptview do theirs,both are closed source boxes.

Same here - tried to watch Toon v Spurs and it glitched and lost signal all of the way through. Def going down the sat route now - at least the kids will get to watch Cartoon Network during Half term!!
