Please newbie question!

pacmyc

Hello.

I have a echostar dsb-770 FTA.
I read in many forums that it's possible to patch it with strong software.

I have been looking for info about this for a really long time but can't get it, is it possible to watch some encrypted channels without a card or not?

Some people say that no encryption has been hacked, but there's still a lot of talk about cams and stuff.
Is there any complete newbie guide for this?

And please answer this question: Can I patch my echostar receiver with strong software, update the keys, and somehow watch any encrypted channels on hotbird 13E or sirius 4.8E?

Thanks
