Have a look on fleabay not looked for some time, but there use to be plenty of cheapies on there.

You could also have a ask to Southern Satellites or lincsat, they might have something for you.

Very best regards Wez

Yeah, the last time I looked on fleabay the Sky boxes were going pretty cheap, although you would be better off getting a new card, ask madrat. Although if one comes free with it, you might be OK PIN wise, that is the problem that madrat had.
