    Hi Guys ,

    Do you know of anyone that would have one of the SKY HD 1.5TB box's ex stock ?

    My SKY HD box has been playing up for ages , saying no satellite signal when indeed it does have one and really starts playing up when it records something , the second tuner goes on the blink , the only way to sort it is too plug her out , its grand for a day or two and goes back to its own ways.

    Anyway the extra capacity will come in Handy , but being the time of year it is I was hoping I mite be able to find one in Ireland rather than waiting on a delivery as herself is doing her nut because all her recordings are getting messed up !

    Cheers for any help

    Is it a Thomson manufacturer box? Renowned for power supply problems - just google "sky hd thomson psu".

    You could try ringing sky, they now supply the Sky+HD 1TB box to the Republic for €249 and you may be able to haggle a deal out of them to get the box at a reduced price.

    It could also be a dish, LNB, or cabling problem.

    Yep it is a Thomson 902020,

    Might try get it repaired and put it in the bed room , but want to try get the New one of the main living room ,

    Got a lovely 60" LG 3D TV and the recordings on SKY 3D eat up the space on the disk also.

    If anyone had one of the 1.5GB I would buy it in a flash !

    Try Here:

    They can repair the box, upgrade the hard drive, and save existing recordings. Very reasonably priced as well. Better than phoning Sky
