    Lads,
    I got a sky card on ebay and can get all the bbcs,itv and other things.but I cant get channal five or channal four,or itv 2,its like the skybox knows when I put the uk card in that I am trying to get stuff that Irish skybox owners should not be watchin,can anybody lets me know what the problem might be or if there our any frequencies that i might be able to bang in with the option add extra channels.I was on an internet site that said that these 3 channels would be comin soon to these uk cards,but instead I get a message saying that I am not subscribed to these 3 channels.
    thanks lad

    Have you tried unplugging the box from the phoneline before putting the card in

    Failing that plug the digibox out of the mains as well and give it a few seconds to reset before plugging back in

    Failing that leave the card sitting in the box overnight with it tuned to UTV or Sky news so that the card "learns" the new codes for these channels

    Also remember that ITV 2 is not available on that FTV card, it is on a UK family sub or higher only.
    Never have the phone plugged into your box when using a ftv card.

    You will not get ITV2 on an FTV card,it requires minimum family pack or higher.

    As Mike said,leave the card in for a few days to see if the missing channels appear,and NEVER connect the phoneline when using the UK card.

    EDIT: Great minds think alike :D:)

    thanks lads,
    Its just I have not got me phone plugged into the bugger,(skybox)
    maybe leavin the card in and seeing if it picks up the c4&c5 overnight might be the option,Is there somebody over at Sky who likes upsetting the party,because 94% of the party is working its the spoiler who is the trouble marker ??????? :eek: :rolleyes:

    That's a must. Give it a try. Give it a full 24 hours plus if you can. They seem to change the codes for C4 reasonably regularly so if you only use it the odd time you'll find this again (assuming it works in the first place)
