Go buy the pvr decoder.
You may need to change your lnb.
Call mutlichoice to upgrade the package.

Rocket science.

Try an electronic shop bought mine for under R300 from them.

Is a twin lnb enough to upgrade to a pvr?

Yes, unless he's going to go the XtraView route, in which case he'll need a multiswitch as well. If he buys the Explora he doesn't need the multiswitch though

Elaborate please

On why he wouldn't need a multiswitch for an Explora?

The explora comes with a multiswitch type box. Into it, two cables from the LNB goes. From it one cable goes to the Unicable port on the explora.

It then has (up to) four ports to which you can connect your other decoder. And that is all you'd possibly need as the most number of tuners any of our decoders have is four.

Hope I'm answering your question.
