    I've yet to find one which isn't flakey, so am currently using a cheapo ?30 Alba box.

    Hi this site is brilliant and the link takes you to reviews of boxes by people who have bought them.

    Without doubt a Nokia 9850t ( if u can find one ).

    I had one of these that bust and replaced it with a cheap one (?50) from dixons. The replacment one drew so much signal strength that I could not get a picture on the ordinary anologe tv nor a decent digital reception. This was then replaced with two other brands of box and both gave the same problem.

    It turns out that most modern cheap boxes don't have amps in.

    Luckily I managed to get a couple of unused nokia boxes of ebay the other day. for ?20 ea :)

    I agree with ZX Beccy. I got one of those old Nokia ITV On digital boxes for a measly ?10 never had any grief with it.
