Default List of all BskyB recievers.

Heyy All. Just wondering if anyone knows of a site with a list of all the BskyB receivers from like 1998 through to today, 2008. If not, this could be the first site to get one!

Hi there, just checked out the list on sat-haven and spotted the old 'Sly' box I have, its in the last box in the list of Thomson box's but there are several of them, its the one with the 'Sly' remote above it, I'm looking for instructions for this one any idea of the model number or where I can get a copy......come to think of it, instructions for the remote would be handy as well.....sorry If I'm asking a lot.

Cheers

Yes, all functionally identical. Here's one for the Pace DS430N as an example.

Sorry guys, I thought I would need instructions to operate it, I've never had one before and now the freebee card has run out I'm now using it for FTA and would like to filter out the channels I don't want and create a favorite file if thats what you call it.

Cheers

You cant remove unwanted channels on a sky box The best you can do is set up 50 favourites through the services menu. What do you man the card has run out?? They should stay active until the next card swap

When I got the box from my niece, she said the card is valid until the 19 April, so I assumed that it would only give me 4, 5, sky3 and 5 US & Life after this date or am I missing something?

I think I'll start playing with my Lego set!

Your neice was probably referring to subscribed channels. The card will still open all fta and ftv channels. It may need to be switched on for a few minues to update if it has been off for a while.
