    Hi All,

    Sorry about the acronyms :)

    I'm thinking of getting in a FTA dish and I'd like to get in HD, mainly for the BEEB's HD coverage to be honest (I don't know of any others that are free HD), and I'd also like to have a Sky+ type of recording options, is there anything you could recommend to me?

    Oh yeah, I presume I'll need a disk with 2 receivers on it?

    Thanks in advance

    As BArra says, the Humax is probably your best option:

    You also get access to ITV HD (Not a full time channel) and Luxe HD.

    1 but if you wish to use a PVR then you need to use 2 lnb outputs.
