possibly silly question - clone freeview card

[phatsteve]

This may be a silly question, but is there an easy way to clone my sky freeview card? I already subscribe to sky, that card is in my main digibox, but I have a freeview card (the one with the yellow house on it) in a bedroom digibox, and I would like another for another bedroom. I know I could py £20 for one, but I see these programmers for about a tenner

Would either work? Is it easy? Or am I just being too mean to pay £20? Or is there another way to get a freeview card?
Many thanks.

Its not possible to copy / clone any Sky cards.

Pay the 20 quid or do without.

Also, take care not to confuse Freeview and Free to View !

Technically it's possible but,

1. Not at home (VERY ADVANCED equipment is needed)

2. Will cost you many many many times more than 20p
