Goodmans Twin Tuner Set Top Box with 160GB Hard Drive GHD1621F2

I bought one of these just under a year ago. It just keeps on freezing up. I keep on having to unplug it and reboot. Even then there is no guarantee that it will be fully functional. Don't waste your money on this one.

Eagle Aspen 20dB In-Line Satellite Amplifier

The earlier reviewer misused the booster. It goes between the dish and receiver. A regular TV booster goes between the receiver and TV if using channel 3. HDMI, component, composite are not good for any distance.

Satellite Compass and Finder

It does not include an extra cable to connect it between the receiver and LNB. (As it has no power of its own, it has to be connected to the receiver.) So, you may have to buy a short cable only for the 'finding' purpose. This device is useful to...

This item is rubbish easy to setup but then expect it to freeze and switch itself off. This has happened 3 times in 3 days and will be going back to the shop for a refund. Save yourself the hassle and don't bother buying one in the first place.

I have 2 of these in use, and prefer the older units by Hughes. The remote is not as user friendly, and it is not as easy to check whats on and jump to a favorite channel as the old units.
