    what cards and stbs are compatible with the old conax cam V 2.01?

    Those are polish channels only ( as long as we are talking about TELEWIZJA NA KARTE). Basiclly it operates on the same principles as pay as you go cell phone service. You buy SIM card , activate it on line or over the phone ,watch tv for 3,6 or 12 months and then at the end of that period I...
