I am waiting on delivery of my dragom cam which comes with a loader card.

The more i read the forums the more i believe i need another card.

I also have the ART sports card coming but do i need another Smart card to unlock other channels, or do i have enough to unlock most if not all that is available out there ??

You'll need to name the packages you're after as there are so many on the different sats. The Dragon will get you a few, but we need some specifics.

To be honest with you Lancelot, I don't know what i want other than as much as possible.

So I assume from your comment, there are certain cards that will unlock certain encryptions ??
What Encryption does the Dragon do ?

As much prem football would be the first place to start for me. I know I have the ART card coming, but I assume there is more out there ?

If you asked that question last month I would have said the world's your oyster as we had half a dozen packages from different providers across the arc, but that's the hobby they come and go on a regular basis. Currently we are having to put up with just Mediapark on 30w, Easy tv on 19E ,TPS on 13E and the SRG swiss package also on 13E. SRG is changing keys daily and TPS every 20-30 mins which is a bit of a pain. Sure it will all settle down after the footie though.

Best to just get what you've ordered for the minute an learn to master that for a couple of months, that'll give you time to decide what you want to do
long term.

No rush :D

Yep, sounds like a plan.

I will do just that

I'm really sorry to ask - I can't find it on a search...

I'm about to buy a new box and Dragon CAM, and I'd like to get the SRG Swiss channels you mentioned Lancelot, however I can't find out what card I need? I know they're Viaccess.

I've searched Google, ebay UK, ebay DE etc and can't turn anything up.

Any ideas much appreciated.
