I'm probably the only person on this forum who has an idea what you're on about since I have 2 DB500s.
If they are a reliable clone then they should be able to load most firmware for your FTA channels.
There are no FTA channels showing Premier football if that is what you want one for.

It is a satellite receiver that runs on Linux.
You could point one at SKY on 28E and pick up all the Freesat channels.
To get encrypted channels you need original cards.

what other signals can you get other than sky? and how many channels can you get with it

You can pick up all the Free To Air channels from any satellite that you can lock onto in the sky.
Of course 99% of these 1000s of channels are completely useless but can be useful for foreigners.
If you want anything more exciting then you need to buy cards to unencrypt them.

http://www.lyngsat.com/europe.html will give you some idea.
28.2 is where SKY is.
I normally lock onto 19E, 16E, 13E, 9E and 1W

cheers mate.

yeah i want to buy it to recieve freesat channel as the antenna reception in my area is pretty poor.
plus the images provide some good features which i may require for streaming films to my tv from my nas box
