I called up last Friday to get a stream box, was only on the phone for 5 mins, it arrived today, plugged it in, it done a software update, I added a profile and my FTA channels, all done.
Very pleased with this tiny streaming box, it’s so small. I mainly wanted it for the FTA channels.
all the apps like Netflix and Disney all work fine, although a bit sluggish navigating compared to other higher spec devices which is to be expected.
live tv picture quality is very good, as good as my old sky dish I would say, watching on a 55” tv.
only thing on my wish list is if I could watch regional news in London instead of Anglia, other than that very happy.

Hi @corky123
Thanks for you post, it's good to see first thoughts and feedback.
You should be able to watch the BBC London regional news on channel 861.
You can also open and set up iPlayer to watch the regional news from your region by clicking on search and typing in BBC London.

Ok thanks for the feedback for BBC, it was more ITV really, I’m used to the London regional news on this channel.

Just checked and there is no channel 861, the channels don’t go up that far.

Hi again @corky123
Sorry about that channel not being available on the new Stream box.
I'm afraid I can't check it as I have the 360 box.

hi there. Do you live in London?
What BBC region do you have on 101?
on 04-05-2022 17:17
I’m not too far from London, it just my old sat box used to get the London region that’s all.
101 is BBC1 Anglia which is correct for this region.
