You can ring sky up and get a freeview card @ £20.00. Most of the channels i believe are free to air now though.

Robbo · 29-06-09, 09:23 PM

Which free channels do you want to watch?

Analoguesat · 29-06-09, 11:23 PM

You do not need a card to watch the free channels - just the four ftv (free to view) channels:

Five
Fiver / +1
Five USA / +1
Sky 3.

If you are expecting Dave or 4 Mussic please note these are pay channels on satellite.

Also Sky Sports News,which is another popular channel,that is available on DTT(Freeview),yet is part of a subscription package on satellite.

You can get C5 if you Add Channels using
10773H
27.5 22.0

Then use Other Channels to watch it.

If the card has a yellow house on it, leave it in the box for a few days and Ch 5 should come back. Unless the card has been candled.
