    New to satellite. Some Questions

    Looking into getting a Blade 7000HD. I already have a sky dish.

    1. Am I right in thinking that I will only be able to pick up SKY channels on Astra satellite?

    2.Would I need a bigger motorized dish to pick up Saturday 3pm Prem football for example?

    3. I read something about Foxtel in OZ introducing new measures to combat Card sharing is this true and is this likely to effect the Blade and the UK? Would I be better off with a Dreambox or a different Linux receiver?


    Sorry for all the questions thanks in advance.

          4. Are the various sat servers that come up in google searches legit? Is is possible for someone to PM me details of a decent trusted server?

          Sorry for all the questions thanks in advance.

                  It wasn't me Andy but I do not ever question what a Mod does.

                        Thanks guys, I feel like the new kid in school. I am intrigued as to what andy posted now I am thick skinned so I wouldnt be offended, especialy as I am an Oasis fan to.

                        I sort of know the answers to my questions except my 3rd point. Are we allowed to talk about that?
