      if it was me i would order a clone vu solo or duo if you would like twin tuner they are better build quality than them clone 800,s and forget about the dm,s for around 110 for solo and175 for duo you could not go wrong with clone vu

      the vu clones also use genuine images instead of all that patched different bootloader crap you have to go thru with the dm clones

      put dm on ebay or gumtree it will probably make 40 -50 quid and put the rest to it and buy new box instead of throwing good money at a bad box

          The dm 800 are a decent box mate. For the sake of 25 quid on a New tuner I would bite the bullet , if you want a New twin tuner box then take the advice above otherwise stick with the dm , sim2 team do a great job releasing new images weekly , no messing about with boot loaders , flash an go , I have one running 24/7 for the last 18month an not missed a beat ,

              Hi

              Pretty certain an 800se tuner would not fit an 800hd.

              Regards
