[Channel Hopper]

but its less likely right since sky box better components than cheap satellite receivers such as manhattan?

.... more likely, historically.

but isnt the card meant to be skys property since it was in box when i bought it?

I cant believe you are actually asking that.

Sky are hardly likely to drag you through the courts just because you have a card provided to someone else. They would have to nab everyone who scraps boxes or flogs them at a boot sale.

Oi Sky! Ive got at least 4 cards acquired from various sources & scrapped boxes which you are most welcome to reclaim if you can be bothered.

Cobblers - the receivers are all built using components from the same factories. And if you dont believe me there is historical evidence from all the capacitor failures from a bad batch of caps which started about 12-13 years ago.

Google capacitor espionage if you dont believe me

my sky+ hd box is one of the models from 2016 so it should be okay right?

Theres no such thing as a freesat card. Theres a freesatfromsky card, but its far more likely to just be an expired subs card
