        have a picture ,will you want to record stuff,do you want a 7 day egg [tv guide ] fixed dish or motorised,if you get a twin tuner box it needs 2 lnbs as it is 2 tuners,3 single tuner would need a quad lnb and 1 spare.

        would freesat do the kids?

              sorry I have a dish up it's a fixed one so not motorised at the moment .

              But as you say 1 box to record and watch and the other 2 to watch
              In the kids rooms

                I would say Vu Duo as main box.

                and Skybox f3 in the kids rooms. Feed twin ln to vu duo and a single feed to each kids rooms.

                Have a quad lnb on dish

                    And for the price dont buy a Vu Duo original either, It's over 4 years old Tech now and newer ones are on the horizon.
