I didn't see the following query in the FAQ's so thought I would post
it here. Hopefully someone has tried this and can shed a little light
on the subject.

I want to recieve the four Irish terrestial stations via Sky because I
am in a part of Nothern Ireland where the hills block the signal so I
can't get it with a rooftop aerial. I was thinking off arranging with
a friend in Dublin to subscribe to the basic package with sky in the
south and have him post the card but I have a number of questions
before i do....

Will he just be able to phone up sky and order a card for the basic
package without having digibox? In otherwards is a sky card linked or
'married' to one specific box?

What questions do sky ask when u phone and request a card only?

If the card isn't linked to one specific box is it just a case of
switching cards when i want to watch Rté etc?

If my friend can't be bothered with the hassle of setting up this
arrangement can someone point me in the direction of someone/company
who provides irish cards?

Any other Info - especially problems in doing this - will be greatly
appreciated!

Many Thanks in advance,

Dee.
