Hi Raj, welcome to the forum.

You will only be able to watch the FTA channels on 28.2E. There's no way of watching anything else on that satellite with your receiver.

If you are able to point your dish to other satellites e.g Hotbird 13E and Astra 19E, there may be a patch for the Fortec available to clear some encrypted channels on those satellites.

Try _www.al7bar-soft1.com for any info on this subject.

Thanks alottttttttttttttttt bro.....one more thing if you can help...iam not at all getting the normal bbc channels through 28.2E and also if i buy another receiver which got CI or Smart Card access can i get pay channels using any patch for the card? in that case please reccomend me a good receiver bro....

Shouldn't be having any problems with the BBC channels. Don't know your receiver - try scanning the BBC channel TP's individually.

The Technomate boxes are very popular with people on this forum. Searching this site for technomate+patch should give you some info.

If you want Sky UK you buy a subscription to it. Its the only way, theres no chance of getting any patches to open it on any receiver..

Thats Sky Italy. Sky are just protecting their revenue streams by using secure encryptions.
