ok i hope for the last time........bbc and iTV and c4 are free tv channels
you do not need a viewing card for free tv channels - (but for a few ITV regions you do)
you do need a card (at the moment) to receive channel 5 (this is a free to view channel , not free to air channel)
all you need are a dish (or the relevant size for your area to get the signals) and a digital satellite receiver.
you will not get the main bbc or itv channels on your 80cm dish
a sky FTV card will work on a sky receiver
a sky card will work on other receivers if you can find software for the receiver that allows you to "patch" your receiver to use a sky card.
this software is not available for all receivers.
it is not known if this software will work if / when sky change their sky cards / encryption (now rumoured to be april 2009)
