@Satcat,
For some reason I cannot pick up 10% east, with my Darkbox, only can pick
up thor,astra1/2,hotbird, eut***** 16%, so 10% east would be a non goer for
me anyway,have tried adjusting my dish but no joy,even with a 0.1 lnb....

the fact of the matter is that pltv was working fine on 10e at the end of the last season , on any spiderbox , so its not fair to say there was no footy on the spiderbox as its clearly not true
maybe a member cannot get 10e to appear , but that is nothing to do with owning or not owning a spiderbox , its a reception issue , not a box issue , and I had no problems with 10e on a triax TD110 dish so the "mate" who owns the spiderbox was wrong , end of story
Hello,
I am very sorry if I have upset anyone, it was not my intention to stray off
the subject,regarding the spiderbox,, I will have to make sure that I keep to
the point in future....sorry once again...tommo1:respect-048:
just post in the dish section if you want help getting 10e mate
I've read on this forum before of people having problems picking up 10E.
Personally I get a better signal/quality on 10E than I do on 16E (Digialb channels). It must be a location issue.
I'm in ***bria, North England with a 1m dish.
39e had EPL all season, 6 to 8 games live most weeks, the softcams were always quick to appear for the spider.
The spider did alright for the season just finished, PLTV was a welcome bonus as well.
As one of the Veterans on here used to say "here today gone tomorrow". Always makes me smile when people offer their complaints about a card,box,cam that has stopped working. In the end it's a hobby and if you want to get constant viewing buy a subscription. Too many times have I read about people buying kit and when support either stops or the providers patch their services they moan and complain. No box,cam,card is/or should be advertised as being able to illegally open channels. You're not buying what it can do when hacked. You are buying what the box,card,cam can do legitimately.
Looking at the spiderbox the option would be to go for the 9000HD as is has a CAM slot option. Should the gift go pear shaped you can still add cams to suit. It's also worth pointing out that you could still get PLF on free to air channels if you we're willing to look. PLHD on 10e was open from February time 6 games on a weekend plus highlights and replays throughout the week all in HD.RTS1 on 7e granted in French had a game of the day again FTA. Not to mention the countless feeds viewable check satelliweb not all prem some champ and league 1 and 2, rugby, boxing, wrestling and concerts.
Ok rant over. I bought a protek when the spider had just come on and the rumor mill had said the gift only lasted a year. I have been perfectly happy with the protek. Hd picture is fantastic support has been amazing this year. The team that works on it are on the ball constantly. I am however intrigued by the spider which offers more(9000HD) should things stop. CAM slot internal emu and I think you can add your own servers should you wish to share with a friend or payserver.
All said you are right wait until the season starts, one box,card,cam finishes and another begins. I have a pile of window scapers (fun,titanium,opus,knot). Some lasted an age others months. Hedge your bets roll the dice.
If you want PLTV might as well buy a £20 dragon/trex cam and open that biss channel. Save a lot of money. Can't really recommend to buy a spiderbox based on opening that channel. Its true here today gone tomorrow but protek does sound more promising currently if you investigate further. Spiderbox picture skips sometime on info display and the video playback function lacks a playlist feature and doesn't play all divx size types constistly. The network feature isn't fully used. Good for external cs if you can do that.
No Biss keys have been needed for PLTV 10e for many monhts.
Still FTA now.
@CBo I wasn't suggesting they buy a spiderbox based on opening PLTV as manic01 and I have said it's been FTA for a while . Most HD boxes can cope with (humax2000 doesn't) it.
