good stuff guys, is there anything similar for enteehell? my dad just went digital. or am i just harking back to the days of yore?
 
i know, my mother in law has done this for herself, and has thaught the neighbours how to do theirs, she was 70 when she did it first. this is the same woman who cant send a text on a mobile..... work that one out for yourself:whistling:
 
I do applaud her( your mother in law) at her age, brilliant (y)
its that spirit that will hopefully crack nag3
 
If she can do that, i might even keep her daughter for another while:cheesy grin::cheesy grin:
 
about 3 weeks ago i added bbc hd in other channels and 2 days ago i see it listed under hd channels,no sign of itv hd yet lol
 
Thanks lads :)

A good few mates have the sky boxes (I`ll pass this on to them) & I`m thinking of getting one for the football next season.

This is handy to know.
 
If you have a sky box in Ireland then you dont have to pay for the extra channels.

I`m sure you can get extra channels in the UK also Mark, with the right Frequencies :dunno:
