    Hi.
    Just wondering if anybody knows are any channels available on Sky free of charge?
    I know you have to pay I think €15 a month and you get them all but I wonder are any of them free anyway?
    Thanks

    Current list of HD channels available to anyone for free from 28east. Obviously this needs a HD box (FreeSat or FTA) and Sky make it awkward to tune in some on their boxes.

    I saw on another forum that the frequency hadn't changed but the FEC is now 8/9 for the encrypted version. I can't confirm this myself.
