joined the Free To Air (FTA) club!

And about time too.

Now only Ch4, Ch5, E4, More4 to go.

I can get ITV1 on my FTA reciever but not ITV2, I can get ITV2
without a card on my Sky box.

I too can get all ITV's on my Sky Digi-box with the card-out now. ;-)

Asta La Vista Murdoch.

Com'on Channel 4 and FIVE.

Curious that you can't get ITV2 FTA. Perhaps some digitial "soft"
encryption
exists after all?


ITV2 is FTA


I'm getting ITV1,ITV3 and ITV4 FTA, but not ITV2, I can only get that using
a Sky box. Have you actually seen ITV2 on anything other than a Sky Digibox?

I do right now with my Twinhan USB-Box on the PC ... haven't checked
with my other receivers so far, but I guess it will work as well.

I know the frequency, as I say I am unable to view, I get an onscreen
message telling me to insert my viewing card.

What's the default region for 103 when you do that, London ?



Like with the BBC, the "regions" are cached in memory until you either do a
full system reload or insert a viewing card.

Everytime I buy a Digibox off Ebay, it always starts with the Newscastle
region, until I insert one's posh home counties southerner's viewing card.

My brother's just confirmed that he's picking up the FTA signals nice and
clearly on a 120cm dish in Mittersill (Salzburg Province) Austria. Footy
tonight on ITV1, he's dead chuffed. :-)
