    I wanted to have a look at 20 west but that was not the main reason for buying it.

    I love watching horse racing and I wanted another box that can handle Powervu as a back up for the TM5402 m3.

    I don't use the TM5402 m3 hardly at all now as the other box does all I need.

    As I say, its personal taste.

    Had a quick look but as usual there are clones, any easy way of ensuring I get an original.

    thanks for help

    Well done mate, be really interesting to find out what else you can get on your new box!

    There are 3 Italian horse racing channels on 16 east and The Fight Network on 15 west.

    It will auto update the keys and clear the channels but the keys don't change hardly ever on those channels.

    It will not clear the Powervu channels on 20 west though.

    Well was really wondering how many non-p/v channels he can get, to maybe fully justify buying the golden v8 box?

    No more than the 5402 non powervu. And only in UK afn is the difference and auto update of course.
    The TM F3 super does same except 9e.
    The V8 is a cheap stb and if you want afn for usa sports and au for keys its a bargain.
    If it was an expensive stb wouldnt be worth it.

    Yes but is the V8 able to open other channels (i.e. non powervu) as with a more expensive box - I assume not from what you've said?
    Just seems a bit odd that a box would be brought out only for one encryption method!

    What more expensive box?
    The v8 opens exactly what the rest do plus afn 9e and pv auto update?
    So it does cs it does biss etc everything the rest do.
    Not sure what you don't understand from my previous post when I said the v8 does same as 5402 except it auto updates pv and opens 9e afn.
    So it does what all the rest can do plus pv afn au.
    Plus these stb's have been about a long time they also open the basic tandberg not the latest epl tandberg though but the 1.9e arena channels etc.

    Its less than 30 quid so surely not much justification is needed.

    Its all personal taste though, what someone likes, someone else may not like.

    I like the box a lot, it satisfies my tastes completely but for other people it may not.

    For £30 it's a no brainer if you want au on pv channels.
    And it does all the rest like biss iptv etc.

    I Really doubt its really worth bothering about coming from China Delivery E.T.A = 2 months at the very least
    i can only see Freesat V8 Super DVB-S2 Satellite Receiver from UK @ £52 inc. delivery
    NOT The GT Media V8 Nova RCA DVB-S2 Satellite Receiver .
    i think someone Must surely be able to figure out how to get AFN back working again if some trash box @ £50 can open AFN
    it really can not be That difficult can it ??

    The hash-mode algorithms are extremely complicated. It requires a disassembly of the original box firmware, which is highly obfuscated, to determine them. Only an expert in reverse engineering is competent to do this. It is far beyond the capabilities of the vast majority of hobbyists.

    I got mine in about 3 working days and its less than 30 quid.

    If you like horse racing and AFN, it IS worth it and its auto update as well.
