[QUOTE="PaulR, post: 48035, member: 176256"] Ahh... It sounds like the box is just getting the FTA channels. Firstly, what colour is the card ou bought? If it's light blue then you've got the old type, now only useful for scraping ice off windscreens. The new type of card is darker blue and has a outline picture of a house in yellow. Assuming it's the later card that you have and it hasn't been activated then I used to think that you were stuffed as this service has now been withdrawn but according to your earlier posting you seem to be able to get it activated. Activation is an interactive process where you have have to give details of the boc the card is placed in. The box is then addressed over the air with a signal to activate the card. This activation process sometimes used to take up to 24 hours. PaulR It's just possible that the new free package anounced by $ly today might be useful to you as it will have to use the equivalent of the old FTV card. Perhaps they might be persuaded to provide just the card? [/QUOTE]
