H2h upgrade to........

[villa2010]

Hi. I’ve had a h2h biz for a while now. Was looking at upgrading it. But what is the best box to upgrade to. I don’t use it to record so I’m just looking to get it upgraded. All I need is 1 Sky tuner and 1 virgin turner.

The new formuler boxes are excellent for the price at under £100 and every forum seems to be adding a support section so that is always a good sign.

Would they be an upgrade from the h2h box

I’m looking to spend about £100. I’m still a newbie really. Still learning. Would I be able to use the same build I use for the zgemma

 

[moshibeth]

Which one are you using

 

[1999gtv]

Supported by just about any image maker Atv, Pli ,Vix,etc etc. Wooshbuild and Willos build are both available on this forum. For it's price around £89 the formuler f1 is pretty much unbeatable. Performs as well as a couple of other receivers I own which cost a whole lot more.
