SUPER DARK BOX HD REV 2008, any good?

[fingersd]

Hi all, has anybody had any experience with the SUPER DARK BOX HD REV 2008, as i've just been offered a slightly used one for 150 euro (is this a reasonable price), i would be intending to use it with a h-h motor for the reception of several satelites so wanted to know if the tuner is sensitive. having not seen one or used one i would appreciate input from others.

any other suggestions would also be appreciated.

Thanks, Dave.

Hi

You may well find that most HD receivers perform very well, and better than the SD receivers, due to the processing power and tuner sensitivity required to handle all the data relating to a HD channels.

YOu may be able to get one slightly cheaper, but its a good price.

Thanks as ever,

Hi
just to let you know,me and 2 friends bought darkbox hd rev 2008,two of them were replaced in the first month,(one twice in a month) the door will fall off withing the first 48 hrs if struggles to receive signal for what ever reason it will shut down,i bought a hard drive (expensive on as it only works with esata) to record onto,if a card is in it stutters on the card channels so you cant record them only the free to air,and even though it 1tb hard drive you dare not record more than two hrs or it keeps going back to the beginning of the recording,so all that considered,i would defiantly not bother since the dark man left technomate it seems he has only churned out half cocked stuff that doesn't work correctly,and if i could afford it......id throw it straight in the bin and that goes for all three of us!!!
