    This has probably been asked before and is maybe a silly question. With the introdution of Digital RTE coming in November. Will my technomate pick up RTE etc or will I have to upgrade.

    you will not pick it up with your receiver

    In order to get digital terrestrial and satellite at the same time you will need one of them combo boxes , i.e. Techomate 6900

    However it would be prudent to wait for it to go officially live before you purchase anything. You will have a better understanding what is required and what your choices are.
