Don't know which section to post this Q..
In 2000 I lived in the UK..
Had a valid sky subscription - with a sky digibox and sky digicard..
Now live on the continent..
Have a DB7020S..
Have been reading a lot of topics on sky and cards and viewing on dreambox..
My Q is:
This old skycard I have sitting in the sky digibox (haven't been in use since I left the UK in 2002) could it still be 'valid' - and can I use this in my dreambox..?
I realize that I need to purchase a sky package - but do I need to purchase a new card - and a new digibox..?
On this sky card issue - I would also like some input from you guys: If I'm not focused on sports and movies - but merely on BBC, ITV etc. would I then do fine with just a 'yellow card' in order to watch these channels..?
I can view just a few of these without any card in the dreambox - but that's only: BBC World, BBC1, ITV3 and Sky News..
