    The Viaccess one is the one you want.

    What type receiver do you currently have. You dont need to buy the CAM as a softcam works with these cards.

    I see, good old Triax. You wouldnt have been able to run the Viaccess Softcam on that anyway as Triax havent written one.

    The Ferguson is fine. You could also use the Ferguson combo version (Ariva 250) which will also do it and also does the Saorview Channels as well as Satellite channels.

    What size dish do you currently have ?

    Yeah how much are them Ferguson receivers , 80cm dish pointed at 28.2e

    About €100/€110 or so for Ariva 250.

    You will need a diseqc switch, another LNB, an LNB bracket and about a few feet of cable with 3 f connectors if you want to keep 28.2 signals in addition to 13E which is where the Al Jazeera channels are. About another €25.
