Looking for a second hand Freesat TV satellite box (must have 2 LNB connections)
I am nursing an elderly man who has dementia, MS and now bone marrow cancer. He has problems getting around and the only entertainment he has is television. He can't get television via wifi so he has a satellite dish. His Freesat box (a Manhattan make) is 9 years old and on the blink. He can't afford a new one. So I'm wondering if anyone has a spare Freesat box, any make, (that's Freesat, NOT Sky) that is in working order that they no longer need? Essential that it has two LNB connections (usually the silver connections on the back) and is a receiver/recorder box so it will record programmes as well.
Note added 2 January 2023: thanks so much to the two people who replied to this post with very helpful information. One person suggested a Sky box could work just as well as a Freesat. Someone did actually lend a Sky box to try it out but it wouldn't work. So still looking. I have asked in the charity shops but nothing as yet. Fingers crossed someone can help. This gentleman has only his UK state pension so buying a new box is sadly out of the question.
