    [font=Verdana, sans-serif]Hi,[/font]
    [font=Verdana, sans-serif] [/font]
    [font=Verdana, sans-serif]My 32" LG recently succumbed to the black screen of death.[/font]
    [font=Verdana, sans-serif] [/font]
    [font=Verdana, sans-serif]Really liked having saorview and FTA on the TV without the need for a set top box, but the poor EPG on the FTA and constant retuning of the satellite channels was a pain. It also had the ability to record to an external hard drive but you couldn't watch another channel while it was recording.[/font]
    [font=Verdana, sans-serif] [/font]
    [font=Verdana, sans-serif]Is there any options for [/font][font=Verdana, sans-serif]32” with Saorview and Freesat? [/font]
    [font=Verdana, sans-serif] [/font]
    [font=Verdana, sans-serif]Or at 43” with 4k?[/font]


    [font=Verdana, sans-serif]Are there any options with a twin tuner (ability to record one channel and watch another)?[/font]
    [font=Verdana, sans-serif] [/font]

    [font=Verdana, sans-serif]TIA[/font]

    Hi Quitepossibly.

    The only 32" with a Satellite tuner would be the LG 32LM3600 priced at £249
    https://www.richersounds.ie/p-204515-lg-32lm6300pla-32-inch-hdr-smart-led-tv-1080p-hd-freeview-play-freesat-hd.aspx

    It has both Saorview and Freesat tuners.
    It is only single tuner so you can not record a station while watching a 2nd unfortunately.

    For a 43" there is the LG 43UN73006 priced at £399 but again only single tuner.

    Let me know your thoughts.

    Thanks

    Kenny.
