In Topic: Help to choose a receiver

Don't think so. I did not see provisions for easily swapping tuners easily when I installed the interval SSD in my SF8008 Supreme.

You think so and I am sure you can’t replace the tuners. These are different models. :)

 

From a technical point of view,
Are different printed circuit boards used in these two models, Or are the same boards used with different tuners. My line of thinking is technically the tuners could be swapped providing the same board is used, and providing the proper tools are available to swap the parts. :)

Really, I cannot give a reason to choose any FTA receiver as it is a personal decision. Make your purchase based on what you want or need.

You have got to be kidding. Or are you confusing RAM with Flash?

OCTAGON SF8008 SUPREME 4K UHD E2 DVB-S2X & DVB-C/T2 COMBO (DUAL OS) | Octagon-Germany.eu

 

it says 1GB RAM

 

Your problem is going to be there is very little, next to nothing that is "new".
New receivers that OpenPLi is working on will be shown in red here: https://openpli.org/
Notice all of the receivers in that link are Black?

The only thing "new" for 2024 to date is the Octagon SF8008 Supreme. Good luck on finding anything new this year with more than 1 GB of ram. I don't have a crystal ball, but almost 1/6th of 2024 is gone. Doubt you see many new fta enigma2 receivers in 2024.


In Topic: Octagon SF8008 Supreme Show Signal Below Lock

The patch is terrible as if true is not what you should do and the biggest question is does it really work? At least as far I know it will not work on all the hardware. And I also doubt it really works for this box… maybe you can demonstrate it? As far I know without a lock it will have a kind of random value and your screenshot also demonstrate it. I tried it long time ago >10 years to make a kind of spectrum analyzer with it and discovered it cannot be used for it. This as real alternative for blindscan.

Please take about 7 and a half minutes to review the video in the link below. The signal meter does hang sometime in Positioner setup. Bump the dish one time and the signal goes to 0. I use this feature on the SF8008 Supreme a lot. Thanks.
