You can not copy sky cards, if you could everyone would be doing so. Why not just take your card to your girl friends house, when you're visiting? You can get a cheap dreambox that can be set up to read it.

Nice first post bud... You are asking on a UK based forum how to defraud the UK's biggest pay tv provider.

As my collegue has said there is absolutely no way to copy Sky subscription cards, so you can forget that idea straight away.

hello,
you can not copy the card but you can copy the box.
if you have standard d or high deff.
you can get a dm 500 box and set it up with the same box number as the box at home.
then when you go over just put the card in and see everything you want.
so what you have is 2 boxes the same but using the same card only one at a time.
its faster than swaping the box.
and the free to air should work as well.
