If I connect a current Sky Digital dish to a Skystar 2 will I be able to view the FTA Channels? Will I be able to view anything?

Thanks in advance.

Erm I think I found the answer at the FTA sister site of this great forum.

Is there anyway to watch FTV stuff with Skystar?

Sorry for being such a noob.

Yes of course there is. That is what the Skystar and similar PC cards are for. However, you wont be able to watch the free to view channels like 4 and 5 etc.
