Sky Digital Cracked !

[turnip]

This is how I did it! First of all subscribe to the full Sky Digital package. Remove the card from the receiver and slice off around 2-3cm from the end of the card that protudes from the box. Re-insert the Card, (you can use the offcut piece of plastic to help push the card back in.) Now go down to the Local Pub and start shouting your mouth off about how you watch Sky Digital without a subscription card. Invite home a few Shit For Brains mates to marvel at your 'specially modified box.' Watch the discussion forums as some idiot swears blind, 'I seen it working with my own two eyes.'

Dear All,

I did what was said and now I cannot view any channel and I can't get the fcuking thing out again.

You did not say which end off the card has to be chopped off. Maybe you did. Does the bit chopped off (as you said 2-3 cm) include the chip ? - this would make sense; as in, to get everything for free.



Yours needing help,

Mark.

You could always paint your card - or at least the bit that stickes out of the box - red.

Then you could get people to swear that they have seen $ky being recived on a Red Card. - or if you use different paint, a Silver Card or a Gold Card.

Regards

W.H.

Easier than that, get yourself a bit of wire wool and you've got a white card

Hello Starman

My Brother's mate's friend wants to know which bar he should meet you in in Majorca.

There's a lot of chat heard about dodgy Sky cards being available, but never actually had anyone come up with the goods.
Does anyone know if these are available and where tio purchase one.
I'm currently connected in Cyprus having to use a 2.8 metre dish. Slightly bigger than the original sky dish you get back home eh!:*
Can't get ch4 or e4 very well though.

2.8 metre eh!,no wonder it gets dark 1 hour earlier here in Malaga,

 

[koolclub]

What size dishes are you getting away with in Spain then. can you use any make of digibox there. We are having to use the old panasonic tudsb30 as they have a stronger gain on them but it's getting hard to find them now as the new 31 is in stores.

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 01-May-02 AT 02:45 PM (GMT)]Have a look at this thread Koolclub, http://www.satellites.co.uk/scripts/webforum/DCForumID23/305.html It relates to Astra 2d but is quite relevant, it would also help if you add complete details of your setup including Lnb type, cable run etc.

Also Do a search for "Dish size survey", there is a good thread in the Sky digital section

The choice of tuner in Spain is probably by necessity the same, I believe the Grundig has a suitable tuner as well. I think that the suitability has more to do with the working threshold than anything else.

PS like the look of the club.

Yea here in Spain the pani-30 is considered the best.

The latest Gundig also has a good tuner, but then it seems to freeze a lot and the menus are not quite as fast as the pani30’s

Dish sizes in the south tend to be 1.2-1.4m and all of the channels are there most of the time (including 2D 24/7). However in the south west Sky 1’s transponder is poor and cannot be received on a 1.3 for most of the day, this is strange as other transponders on 2B North Beam are fine so that must have a slightly weaker output
