sure thing,

if you are wondering why some people cant see these free to air channels using there own digiboxes is because sky in there wisdom pulled the plug on the software that will let you see the master transponders on other satellites thus not giving you your god given right under euro DVB regulations.

every satellite has a master transponder and sky knows the frequencies so all they do is put a blocker in the soft that cant find it thus you cant see the other transponders too

and lets face it they are not the type of guys that likes giving something away for nothing are they I have already had 1 complaint held up from the ITC regarding this issue with another pending ::) :-X
