[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 815410, member: 323322"] Well the Card actually only gets you Fiver, Five US, their "+1"s Sky Three and maybe one or two others. All BBC, ITV, Channel 4, Five plus many. many more don't even require a Card and can be obtained with an inexpensive generic DVB-S Receiver or a Freesat Box. The Sky £20 Card is only of value of you already have a Sky Box. Without a Card, a Sky Box won't even give you the correct BBC and ITV Regions on 101 and 103, unlike other boxes. Not to mention the fact that Sky Boxes have no DiSEqC and only permit a very restricted set of Symbol Rates so cannot readily be used off 28 E. So yes, Sky have done it again - they've made life unnecessarily complicated. But we're way off topic, as this Thread is really about Satellite PC Cards! [/QUOTE]
