A friend has offered to give me a sky dish and box and I was thinking of taking it over to the house in Donegal, Ireland. Can someone tell me what channels I would get after setting up?

Without a viewing card you will receive only free to air channels, eg the BBC, Sky News etc.
With a viewing card you will receive as per your subscription.

How many free to air channels would I receive?
Is it possible to make a viewing card using an Elvis programmer?

You will receive what is shown on THIS PAGE and marked as DVB with no encryption package.

PS. No you can't make your own card.
