    I just purchased one through the advertizing link here. All the comments are useful and having the 8K is a plus will be interesting to play with looks like a good FTA receiver for the price. Buying from China does not bother my. My only complaint they need to supply a power adapter that fits out outlet not add an adapter.

    You won't regret it for the price.

    There is an ebay seller advertising a control box that goes between receiver and LNB to adjust voltage has anyone had this problem that now owns a openbox ?
    ///////////////////

    From advertisement:

    The easiest way to confirm that you have the Polarization selection issue is to go in to your Openbox/Skybox menu, then Installation, then LNB power setting and change this to 'Off'. If you can now view the channels previously displaying the 'No Signal' message (SSHD3) but not the other channels that were previously working fine (SSHD1) then this device will work for you!

    A basic explanation of why this occurs is the LNB on your satellite dish requires a low voltage for vertical polarized channels (around 13 volts) and a high voltage for horizontal polarized channels (around 18 volts). A standard cheap sky quad or universal LNB will operate with the low voltage range as somewhere between 10-15 volts and high voltage as somewhere between 16-20 volts. The problem is the Openbox puts out a voltage of around 16-17 volts for low and 20-21 volts for high which means that the polarization remains horizontal even when it should switch to vertical. A decent quality LNB (like that in a motorized dish) will operate with low voltage as anything below 18 volts and high as anything above 18 volts hence why the box works fine on some set-ups, but not others. Our device corrects this voltage differential without adding any potentially damaging extra resistance to the tuner circuit, such as that caused by in-line amps (which can also lead to you losing other channels in some cases). Using our device means the Openbox will then work properly as the LNB can differentiate between high and low voltage, and in turn vertical and horizontal polarization.

    I do not see any reason to buy that.
    How about supplying the ebay item number so we can look at it.
