    As the title suggests, I'm looking for a NI FTA card that will work with this Sky box http://www.sat-receiver-world.com/producer/grundig/grundig-digibox-bskyb.html so that the EPG will be...

    101 BBC 1 NI
    102 BBC 2 NI
    103 UTV

    rather than BBC London/England and ITV1 Central West

    Willing to pay around €35

    Please send me a private messege

    Thanks

    BBC1 NI is on channel 973 and BBC2 NI is on channel 992 on a skybox with no card.You can tune UTV into other channels,it's not much different than ITV London apart from a couple of regional shows and movies.

    Jaysus,that box is a blast from the past,it's ancient.

    It's for an old couple so 101 - 103 is just easier, and there's no EPG for UTV in other channels

    You'd be better off buying them a Freesat receiver or a free-to-air receiver and tuning the channels for them manually.

    OP I'm going to have to close this thread, I'm sympathetic to the situation but we can't really allow these cards (which are BSkyB property) to be bought and sold here.
