Hopefully someone has heard about this as I have tried searching the forum with no luck

A friend has told me of a gentleman selling sly cards for 100 euro
when I heard this I rang him. He said that when you put the card into a digibox you get C4, BBC1, BBC2, BBC3, BBC4, ITV1,2,3 Channel5 and a few others but not sky One, sports, movies, etc. What I am wondering is if I put this card into a dragon will it open more channels within sky or only these few as I do not have sky but friends do. Or should I just forget it

You should be able to get BBC1/2/3/4 + ITV3 already since these are FTA.
The "FTV" card you mention and others like it are on Ebay for around EUR100.
It will clear ITV1/2 + CH4 + five on a SKY digibox provided you can get the signal.

It should also work with a Dragon CAM loaded with predator 3.21 (note but not 3.22+)

why spend 100 euros when you can have cheaper from sky in the freesat version..(20 pounds)if you have someone with adress in the uk.

do google search for freesat from sky

If you buy from sky the card will need to be activated.
This is OK if you have a Sky Digibox, otherwise you pay the extra to get a card that's already activated.

(I am told that) Once activated a FTV card works in any digibox - and in Dragon with the NDS ID, set to any 10 digit no.
