Pace Sky Minibox Javelin

[Mr.Tango]

Hi Team,

Does the above receiver contain a drive in order to record programs?

Thanks in Advance.

Not the one I vaguely recall, it was a small old school 12v receiver with scart (not HDMI) connectivity.

If it's the old one mentioned by RowleyBirkinQC yes it was a scart connection. Still got one somewhere in the loft, the other went to Jaws for a knockdown price I remember!

No, the old pace javelin was just a 12v satellite receiver with no record ability.
Even eBay doesn't list any now.....must be very rare.

Does that make the one somewhere in my loft an antique?

Thanks for the reply team.

RowleyBirkinQC, antique may be a bit strong but they still demand a good price in the motorhome world.

I just need a 12v receiver that will work with Sky and record. Any products out there that fit?

YOu have the older Sky+ boxes, or Sky+HD boxes (dont think either are 12v though), which will record, as long as you have a (paired) Sky card and active subscription. No subscription no record on Sky boxes. If you just want to record free channels , then consider a Freesat box, or a "generic" satellite receiver that can record to USB stick
