(I don't know of any modern satellite receiver which does not have provision for DiSEqC switching).
The specifications for all the various model Freesat receivers are readily available on the WWW via your favourite search engine.
Does anybody know if the Freesat boxes have inbuilt diseq switching for multiple dish/LNB inputs?
Edit: Ok. They do.

I know the firmware on the strong boxes can be upgraded by usb. AS not all new computers carry a 232 port are there any other sat boxes that can be upgraded the same way.Which can open the same as strong . just searched my own question /have found some answers

ALL the late model satellite receivers I have seen lately can be upgraded by USB.

nearly all current sat receivers can be upgraded via usb, there are a few that can open other things same as strong EG: freesat,skybox,matrix,Kepnix,openbox etc etc and all are cheaper than strong as well
I like the SKYbox A1. Very well and easy to use. DISEqC OK . Not easy to get a hand on them.nearly all current sat receivers can be upgraded via usb, there are a few that can open other things same as strong EG: freesat,skybox,matrix,Kepnix,openbox etc etc and all are cheaper than strong as well

No need for PM its not private I buy direct from the manufacturer you have to buy lots of 100 though and Ive sold nearly that many
vendor on Gumtree is me
I will look at aliexpress and see how much they are and if indeed its the K1 if it is I will have to see if me importing direct is still worth it ..
they appear to be K1 by appearances ?? and the price seems good aswell . I pay nearly that much wholesale .. worth investigating more .

Wish my wife liked my hobbydid your wife buy 2 boxes from ebay ? if I had known I would have done you a better deal. I hate selling on ebay I sell more Via Gumtree than ebay.
Yes Ebay are thieves.Wish my wife liked my hobby
Yes she did. Don't worry that was a Good price. One of our Skybox's A1 shit itself the other day. It fires up and the after the Logo its hangs there.
(PS: I'm starting to understand what I'm writing. Before I can scratch a paragraph out and after I stop I read it in my head and I can't understand what I written. For all to know its like writing a sentence in English and the Computer convert its to Russian so to read it back which I can't.)
