I got this news clipping from an English version of a Polish magazine called 'Satkurier'
'Two channels from BFBF package have broadcast in clear on 11th of November. BFBS package is especialy intended to British Army base in Europe. Package broadcast is usualy encrypted in CryptoWorks and is available from Eutelsat W3 - 7E satellite. The BBC News 24 on BFBS6 and ITV on BFBS5 became clear.
ITV (BFBS 5 Television) and BBC News 24 (BFBS 6 Television) broadcast from transponder C6 on frequency 11,324V; SR=27500; FEC=1/2. Some radio channels intended to particular British Army bases have been also available in clear: Gibraltar, North Ireland, Cyprus, Bosnia, BFBS Radio 2 etc. There is 15 radio channels available in the package (not all of them broadcast) include two mono channels. '
Points are
1. Army obviously gets something that we civies dont
2. Any way of (legally) getting the necessary card?
3. Footprint covers whole of Europe and probably beyond
4. I imagine that the British embasies will be getting this now they cant get beeb.
5. I wouldn't be suppriesed if the beeb starts broadcasting. So much for saving money
your comments?
