Great little sat box finds lots of free stations and lots that require payment.good quality pictures via Sat Dish
Small and tidy .Good value for money
Bought this for the wee guy as there's more on freesat than freeview. The picture quality is excellent and is an even better media player play a range of different files. Hotly recommended
My Dad wanted this receiver so I bought it for his Birthday and he is made up with it! I'm sure all the people who have had other receivers will like the style it is made in - it looks so great in his home office! And for what it does, my Dad says it's super cheap!

This review follows my bad experience of Elgato Satfree eyetv since returned to Amazon and this ordered as replacement.
If your looking for a cheap alternative to spending big money on a Satfree PVR then buy this. My scenario is just to record my factual HD tv for my personal playback when the rest of the family are tucked up in bed.
My set up is as:
Box sits next to my PC and is wired up to an external powered 300 gig hard drive. The hard drive is then wired into a switching unit (purchased through Amazon) that allows me to switch the hard drive between Skybox F5 and PC. I can then record HD transmissions to the hard drive from the Skybox F5 and watch through HDMI connected Sony Bravia. If I like the programme and want to save to view again in the future I flick the switch and can then move the recorded file to my PC media library that can then play back through Mediaportal.
I'm outlining my wired setup just to prove that this box works well, very well. You can connect the box to a motorised satelitte dish or to a spare unused sky mini dish. On boot up the box will allow you to scan the satelitte you receive, 28.2 Astra for sky dish. After 10 minutes or so all channels will download, loads free to air. The good news is the main HD channels are free.
Very pleased with this buy and for the money its great value, got mine in white and it looks good sat next to my PC.
