    No as the frequency of channels there will be different to the ones the eurovox tuner can tune. Plus the encryption for their cable company is most probably secure.

        How about if the encryption being used is secure?

            Not the most scientific way of working this out but how many dodgy boxes are there in your friends area? Also out of these dodgy boxes, how many of them are linux receivers?

              I looked at it a while back. At the time they were using Nagra 2 and almost sure it was ROM110. Never looked at the variant as I was on a working holiday

              Maybe worth a look given the now N2 fixes for Ireland "may" match. But local knowledge is always best.

                  But do they even have "dodgy boxes" there? Maybe dreambox is unnown to people who reside in Malta? They should have linux receivers there If they dont have any "dodgy boxes" they should have linux and if they're on a better encryption, its likely some of them c/s

                          It was closed at the start of the year things change, as said local knowledge is always the best way forward.
