Sky Receivers

Receiver Options
There are 3 types of satellite receiver that can be used:
1) A BBC Freesat Receiver: These receivers will provide approx 140 UK channels without subscribing to Sky or paying any further fees. They are ideal as a receiver for free channels but will not accept a Sky subscription card.
2) A Technomate receiver: These receivers have been pre-programmed to receive approx 300 free UK channels without subscribing to Sky or paying any further fees. These free channels include most of the BBC Freesat and Sky digital channels including BBC, ITV, Channels 4 & 5 etc. The receiver also have a useful built in meter which will assist when aligning the satellite dish. They are easy to use and reasonably priced but will not accept a Sky subscription card, ideal for anyone just requiring the free UK TV channels or for touring.
3) A Sky receiver: There is only one type of Sky receiver available which is the Sky HD receiver, the general idea from Sky is that this receiver can be used as an all purpose receiver (Sky HD, Sky + or Std Digibox). You are not obliged to subscribe to the HD pack (Currently £10 per month), the telephone connection is not compulsory,  if you do not require the recording facility (Free when taking out a subscription) then the receiver can be used as a std digibox.
