    Hi star66

    Might be the same guy as mine
    I know I only have MMDS but it has all the channels I need

    I'm using the 8840 but must get another 8200 as I sold mine on and made a bit of money hehe...

    I agree working perfect here
    If you read around the net you will see that S*Y is on the way out
    HD is going hard pairing and if you look at SD there starting to go blank

    It's only a matter of time...............

    I also see people with DM500's why use these as they are only SD
    some people in for a quick kill..............

    8200's all the way

    They said that sky would be gone by July and its still running, as now they have backtracked and stopped replacing the thompson boxes, so i would say the chance of sky c/s going now is slim, they are too afraid people will change over to cable with all the pushing they are doing so they have dropped the push, the only problem now with the thompson boxes is they wont receive the HD or the on demand, and lots of people dont have HD so its not going to matter.

    Not so

    If you look around other forums to will see there up to something with St as they have already taken off a few channeks
    Like rte2 and a few kids channels
    When it's time they will push that button
    Just a matter of time

    They have not moved if you read around you will see there are problems
    At the moment with oscam to csp there is already a new version of oscam
    Just waiting for csp to be updated

    You should have a read around the net and you will see what's going on

    lol i am very aware of what is going on believe me the scare tactics have been going on for years, as i say my box is working 100% with no channel loss so if people are having problems i suggest they find a new provider get test lines from various sources.

    And maybe some people using oscam are having problems some boxes dont work well with oscam, maybe people should revert to a server that uses cccam or find another source, at the present time as far as i am aware there is no problems cards are updating fine.

    tried posting this question already,
    just wondering as i saw these amiko boxes working over xmas, does anyone know do they work down the country outside of the big smoke.

    i'd be very interested to see if they did and how to get one,
    i was reading about getting sattellite box and it sounds very hard to set up compared to this,

    Thats through but with the way things are going with S** its hard to tell if it will be around much longer

    I know there is a fix for Oscam at present but once S** increase the ECM's again this will cause big problems with freezing at what happened before Christmas

    People who use CSP are having problems when S** play around with the ECM's on channels like what is happening with the likes of RTE and S** Sports

    Saying all that YES the Amiko work very well on Cable and Terrestrial
    Cable will be around for a long while yet as for Terrestrial its only a matter of time before U** discontinues the service.
