Help with Sky - Sat - Freeview Tavira

[LeanneMighten]

Hi there
I have been in Portugal for just over a year and I have found that the best way is to have someone in the UK with a subscription and ask them to get the multiroom package - and additional £10 per month. Then they send the additional box to you. You can record, even get the HD channels (if you pay the extra that is - but they do work!). However, you do need a satellite dish to do this - I think the recommended span is 1.8m, and there are plenty of places here that will supply and install them for you, even though it is not legal to have a Sky subscription here.
Hope this helps.

If you go down the multiroom road make sure that the skybox and the card are activated in the UK before you try to install here in Portugal.
If you try to activate the box/card here multiroom won't work

It isn´t legal, we all know that. The question is: how long is that going to work, until our relatives start getting booked??? Do you truly believe that we are more cleaver than them?? Do you realize how many millions of pounds they are losing with this?? Yes I believe that we are the “clever ones”, because we moved abroad. Do you really believe in that???

I much prefer to look on my cup being half full rather than half empty.
