This Sky+ digibox offered by Amstrad which features an upgraded 160Gb hard disk (approximately 40 hours of storable recorded footage). This digibox enables you to pause live TV or record one programme while watching another. You can even instruct the receiver to record episodes from your favourite series, all this without the use of videotapes. The onscreen menu is very easy to use, simply highlight the channel you wish to record and press the record button. It will automatically record at the time the programme starts, plus if you have instructed it to record several other programmes at different times it will record those as well.

A Sky+ subscription required to use Personal Video Recorder features of Sky+ (free while you subscribe to any Sky digital package, otherwise £10 a month).

Please note that a Sky Plus digibox requires two separate cable connections from your satellite dish. This means that your dish needs to be fitted with either a Twin or a Quad LNB. If the LNB on your dish only has one output port on it then you will have to upgrade your LNB.

It is possible to upgrade the hard disk drive for larger capacity and to provide more recording hours.

This box does will work with the Sky Anytime TV service

This box will work with a single LNB setup but you wont be able to watch one channel and record a different one at the same time.
