Apologies if this is in the wrong section but wasnt quite sure where to start the thread.

Is it possible to watch Viasat Sport2, on Sirius 5 degrees East, in England? I think they use the same encryption method as Sky but I may also need Viaccess. Are there any Sky boxes that have a CI slot?

Would I also need anything else, such as a unique subscription to the channel?

I only ask as they are showing every Leeds United match live due to them owning our new sponsors Bet24, so would be interesting in getting something set up asap.

Thanks for any help in advance.

Regards

Phil

Its in videoguard. A different "flavour" of videoguard to what we use in the uk. So its a Viasat subscription, a viasat videoguard box and a ruddy great dish as its transmitted on the sirius 3 nordic beam which gives a rubbish signal over most of the uk.

And no, there are no sky boxes that have ci slots :D
