Hi all, What would you suggest as a cheap entry level setup for myself, when I say setup I mean the lot, dish, receiver cards etc, foreign channels would be good with the football etc.

Many Thanks all in advance.

You need to decide how much you are willing to pay for a football card - cards start at about £200 and go up to 10x that for all the games in HD!

Once you have decided which card you are intersested in THEN we can advise on the receiver / dish size etc.

Are there no football channels these days that are free to air then ? I did say i was a novice :)

Also, what about the " p" word, nudge nudge

Almost never

And "p" off (To coin a phrase)

The maturing of Digital Satellite technology means many loopholes are (more or less) closed now.

You want to watch overpaid poseurs in the Prem League then you pay for it these days. As Tivu says you are 3 years too late for widescale signal cracking.

I would recommend a linux box. They are easy to set up for free channels but get a lot more complicated if you want to customize them. You can use almost any card you like in them and there is loads of help on this forum. Linux is a steep learning curve but worth the effort. I wouldn't have any other type of box.
