    I've moved into a new house and there is a Skybox present. A card is in it, and we had bbc1 & bbc2 for free the last few months. This has now ceased. Do any of you have any advice on how to "re-connect"? Is it possible to buy a card for all the channels and tune it in (leaving the box as it is?) Any advice much appreciated, thanks.

    I'm moving this to Satellite as you'll get a better answer there. Plus, though effectively you're looking for a freebie and hence a bargain, it's really a technical question so belongs there anyway I suppose.
