Skybox F3

[Evor]

Hi
Looking to buy a skybox F3 or M3 have had a look on ebay and There are plenty available, has anyone got either box and can recommend one over the other. Also if I can get recommendations of sellers as will buy of ebay but would rather get from someone people have dealt with. Thanks in advance for any advice.

why not spend a bit more and get gigablue. You get VIX image support which is worth the price of the box on its own.

Thanks Guys for replying. Just wanting something to mess about with will be box for bedroom. got sky HD downstairs, looks like lot of support for openbox/skybox obviously as well as other manufacturers but as long as picture is watchable I dont mind. Really not wanting to spend too much as will prob get fed up fiddling with it in a couple of months and thought these looked ok. Just wanted to know anyones experience of one and which one F3 or M3.

i have 2 xtrend box's both running vix v3.0 just looking for a cheep box for the bed room, did look at the openbox/skybox but found a lot of "stay away from cheep chinese box's" though the Ferguson Ariva 102 Mini box getting good reviews.

The Ferguson gets good reviews but where is the support, its a good little box to start with bit the Openbox has more support and channel list are readily available for it if you look around.

The M3 is preferable over the F3 if using for a Motorised system as the M3 has the Very sensitive Sharp DVB-S2 tuner fitted.
