My aging Panasonic TU-DSB30 is constantly freezing halfway through changing channels, and so its time for the bin.

What good satellite receiver are out there that I can pick, maybe off ebay?

Note: I aint plumping for a new Sky+ or HD cos I hate giving Sky any more money. I just want a cheapo replacement that works 🙂

you dont pay any extra for sky+ anymore, you just need to regester it, but you need two inputs from the dish if you want it to work properly i.e. watch 1 channel, record another
