Is there a system I can get which will enable me to have sky digital free?

Not as far as I know and if there is, they're keeping it very quiet.

In that case, what is this about http://www.satellites.co.uk/php-bin/...&threadid=3964 ?

Ahhh, that is about free channels, but not Sky digital, the Dream box, magic cam, along with Freecam and Multidec installed with a PCi Satellite card can get you loads of channels, but you will need either a steerable dish, or a multi LNB setup.

The PCI Satellite card with multi LNb is probably the cheapest to kick off with.

What Sky channels are on that? How much does that cost? Would I be able to install it myself?

There are no Sky channels per se, but there are channels such as national geographic, MTV etc, plus a bundle of film channels.

Have a look in the PC Card Systems forum, there are several threads discussing what is available and how to set them up

To install a dish is the same whether it be for a pc card or stand alone receiver and without the help of a meter, is a little bit trial and error, some members have become very good at it though.
