wich box for a beginner

[fattyisfat]

.hi sorry this has probably been covered a million times but which box is best for a beginner.

basically all i want is the s*y sports uk channels would like a cheap box to start with in case i fail at setting up dish and everything, so which of the cheap bunch do you think will have the best support on this forum for setting up?

ideal budget around ?130 not to worried bout dual tuners or anything fancey

cheers for your time tom

my advice is if you are setting a system up then get yourself a cheap motorised dish pack, td78,tm2300,black ultra,wall mount cable ect as things change in this game all the time. you could get a cheap box like a ferguson ariva combo and dish pack for around ?170 thats just ?40 more than your budget and will give you plenty more options for the future. regards mdt
