[QUOTE="A nonymous, post: 811235, member: 240839"] As captain has already stated you cannot use Zon card in another receiver unless you can extract the boxkey and RSAKey from the receiver the card is paired to. Zon uses Nagra3 which is paired to the receiver. extracting the boxkey from one of Meo's receivers is not something the hobbyist can do. Do not be tempted to send your receiver away to get the boxkey as the last guy advertising this service ended up running off with the clients money and didn't even collect the receiver from the post office. They were returned to the owner a few weeks later by the local post office. If you want a cheap HD box that you can play with then go for something like a Gigablue, Maxview or Vu+ Solo. Prices start from as little as £99 for the likes of the Maxview upto around £200 for the more top end receivers in the budget ranges. If you don't want to mess and just want to watch TV then something like a Ferguson Ariva or an Eaglebox will do you fine. Watch out for Dreambox DM500 units as they are mostly clones now as DM stopped making them years ago. You can also get clone Openbox/skybox units so make sure you buy from a known trusted seller.
