I have some money lying around, and think this ought to be spent on a
new receiver.

I have a FTA box from Lidl that has served me well, but now I want
DVB-S2 and a CI slot.

I would order another Silvercrest box but

* now live in the Netherlands (where is where the poor shop, and as such
only sells food - The rest go to Albert Hein and get fleeced rotten for
the same tasteless food :P ) and,

* I cannot find the Silvercrest web site.


Silvercrest aside, are there any reasonably priced, sensitive and
reliable receivers out there that handle DIsqEq 1.2, 1 x CI slot and
DVB-S2?.

AFAIAA Silvercrest satellite boxes are generally Comag receivers
rebadged for sale by Aldi and Lidl so you might actually want to steer
in the direction of :-
http://www.comag-ag.co.uk/
(comag.nl seems to be an abrasives company)

When I clicked your link I received a 'virus removed' notification from
F-Secure and I had to reboot.

Interesting. AVG does not seem to object to it.
