Freesat HD recorder - can you help?

[Monty Cristo]

Any techies out there help? I have a recently cancelled Sky + HD box which I was using to access free to air channels. Anyhoo, surprise surprise, now I don't pay for Sky any more, the box has stopped working (Not satellite signal received). So, I would like a recorder which would allow me to access the free to air HD channels with the ability to pause, record etc. BT have offered me their TV box for an extra ?5 a month, but I'm unsure which option to take up. Any advice appreciated.

I use a Humax PVR. 500G hard drive and after the initial cost of ?125, it's all free thereafter

+1 Humax are great, they do both Freeview and Freesat so you have a decision to make if you want to utilise your Aerial or Dish.

Is that for the TiVo or just Freeview? Is there faster internet available?

We have two virgin TiVo boxes, 50 meg BB and phone line. Last year we had the XL TV package and 20 meg BB for ?78 per month. This year we changed to the small TV package and 50 meg line which now costs us ?45 per month. I think we got a good deal, we did tell them that we wanted to leave all together! Probably got a deal from retention I guess. Our plan was to change to a freeview/freesat box but we don't have a roof aerial or sat dish so....

Oh crumbs, it's more complicated than I thought! So - what happens if my sky dish really isn't working properly?
