Give me a clue where I could buy a Nilesat card.......ebay shows nothing..even a google on "nilesat supplier" and variations thereon gives nothing.

Cheers,
Ian

No such thing as a Nilesat card, you would look for ART/Arabesque.

hm.....art left hotbird

Right, if i understand it correctly, I point my dish at 7º instead of Hotbird, buy a CAM for Irdeto and just purchase a new ART card.......forgive my ignorance, I dont have to search out a card that is specific to Irdeto ?

Many thanks

Ian

Ah, but all of these posts are relevant to the original poster's question, he now can't receive ART from Hotbird in Cyprus and they are discussing how he can on Nilesat. :)

Cheapest way is to get one from someone with an address on the Greek mainland, although they should be available from Cyprus, otherwise expect to pay over the top.

Iam in Larnaca but that would mean having to move my dish to receive Nilesat wouldnt it, in terms of value for money and English programmes is Nilesat better than hotbird and what would i expect to pay for the viewing package ?

Moving your dish takes 5 minutes.
The Showtime pack plus sports is very good as it includes english programs as well as top american shows.package starts from cy200 (no football)and 259 (football/formula 1)per year.and you can add on the 6 art sports on top of that.

You could keep your dish on hotbird for bbc prime and put up another dish for nilesat.the showtime pack includes a channel called style uk which is quite good.I can supply showtime cards(and dishes)
