derek500 Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Yes they are very good and do the job. However, they can be fiddly and time consuming setting up and if you're travelling around each day it can get a bit tedious packing it away etc. Also you'll need to keep a window slightly open to feed the cable outside. Another thing, when it's dark or cold or wet outside it's no fun setting it up. The FTA box that comes with it is a very good user friendly receiver and will pick up the BBC/ITV channels and many other channels including news and some movie (non Sky) stations, but not C4 or C5. Since I bought mine I have changed to a Maxview Crankup dish, but I still use the FTA receiver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
