    No.

    sure? Seems you can if you have a UK FTV card...

    If you have a Sky + hd box and can get hold of a UK Free to air card you can get these channels permanently on the Irish epg and recordable

    Sorry. No, not on an Irish subscription.

    I beg to differ

    When you remove your Irish card, your Irish subscription privileges are gone. You have the channels where you want them until you take your FTA card back out, correct?

    Incorrect. Read Post #1 in the linked thread above.

    I don't know how it works but it does. BBC1 is on 101 as is RTE 1 - ITv and TV3 are both on 103 - read through the thread I quoted earlier. If you unplug the box you lose the channels but you can soon get them back by repeating the trick.

    Until the box is plugged out then. Fair enough.
