No such thing as a FTA card, FTA are just that Free To Air - Requires no
card.

What you mean is a FTV card - Free To View - Required for around 5
channels.

Fox is neither transmitted FTA or FTV, but for some reason some boxes
are decryting the signal with a FTV card.

Don't worry I would only watch if there was some major breaking news
story as they make such a hoo hah about it. As I have a 1m motorised
dish I usually the watch NBC today show on telstar 12 at 15 west. In
fact NBC is almost 24/7 at the moment on this bird
