I have the Comag kit,first couple of times was a bit fiddly,but now I have no probs,had it two years now,just one pointer,,,if kids are going to use it, put the channel lock on the adult content.

Think this year is to follow old meet friends for 2014.
If you cant do someone a good turn,don`t do them a bad one,its nice to be nice you know,and little things mean much more later in life.

Hi lissan.

             The Comag box's are great, nice and compact and can run of 12volt, if you prefer the much user friendly EPG of the Sky box, then try and get hold of a Sky Mini-Box, although they have stopped making them, there are plenty about, made by Pace and also can run of 12volt, very compact box. hope that helps.

Hi Pete. I think it was your comment quote  "If you cant do someone a good turn,don`t do them a bad one,its nice to be nice you know" that has really, really annoyed me.

I used mine for the first time at the weekend down in the Scottish Borders. It WAS A NIGHTMARE TO SET UP!!! (until the good lady read the instructions!) Then I got it and it was fantastic!  Brought the wrong box down though! Doh! Our movies package was tied to one of the other boxes in the house. Never mind.

No, seriously it was a tad fiddly on the first effort, I now know exactly what to do, I do as she says!!
