Lidl Satalite system "upgrade"

Stephen O

My trusty 12v portable satalite system bought from Lidl in roughly 2008-9 has served me well but Skys change to only broadcasting HD channels means virtually all uk channels have gone from it. I have also had to throw 2 sky boxes and replace them with manhattens. Any idea of a 12v replacement? I don;t need a whole new setup, just a box for when I go France. Thanks

@Stephen O One way might be to find a cheap satellite system in a suitcase and used the receiver from there? If you need a new TV there are several makes that have a satellite receiver built in, Avtex and Cello are worth a look. It might be worth looking here

The change to HD should not effect the satellite part of the receiving system. Therefore if you do not have a fully integrated system you should only need to replace the TV receiver. This could be the "box" or the TV if it is integrated in the TV.
