I bought the Maplin's Sat in a Suitcase a few months ago. The box is preset with several satellites and at first glance, looks like it's setup for all the German (or Dutch?) channels. However, once the dish is correctly aligned and pointing at the Astra 2 satellite, you will receive the channels you are familiar with.
That said, I found I had to go into the setup and select "Scan for Channels". Then and only then did the EPG show the Astra 2 channels. I had to do this everytime I set up too and it was a pain in the proverbials. One of the reason I decided to take it back to Maplins and get my money back.
Other reasons were.....
I'm profoundy deaf and rely on subtitles and I found that the subtitles setting on the box was a bit of a hit and miss affair. Useless to me.
I hated the EPG setup, being so used to the Sky system and way of life.
So yes, it went back and I bought a Pace 1000 Minibox off eBay instead. Way better IMHO.
