    Aljazeera Sports Card

    Hi, im thinking of purchasing an Aljazeera sports card this month. I live in the UK, have a motorised set up with a Technomate 6800HD receiver. Please can someone help me with the following questions before I decide to make the purchase:

    1) Looking online it appears that i need to buy either a Viaccess cam or an Iredeto cam to use with the card. Which one should I go for? Will they both work with the Technomate 6800hd receiver which has a CAM slot?

    2) Are there any differences between the Viaaccess and Iredeto cams? Is one more reliable than the other etc and which is more future proof for this card?

    3) I see on Ebay that you can get a card that unlocks channels 1-8 for ?90, but then a card that unlocks 1-10 for ?120. Is it worth spending the extra cash?

    4) I will mainly be using 13E Hotbird to receive these channels but I can also pick some of them up on 26E Arabsat and most recently 7W on the new AtlanticBird (including the HD ones). Will the card I purchase be able to work across all three satellites?

    5) Is there any reason I should hold off on buying a card now i.e. any imminent changes to encryption etc. Are these cards reliable i.e. I don't want a card like Tring where people lose matches etc.

    6) Can any recommend anywhere cheap and reliable to buy the card/cam?

    Thanks in advance

    1 ) I hear viacess is the best, should go for this, should work!

    2 ) Once again viaccess is the best and is sold with al jazeera cards that are sold with cams.

    3 ) Yeah worth spending the extra cash, get a few more channels.

    4 ) Yes it will.

    5 ) No, Not that I know of, Its been solid 8 years now I think al jazeera

    6 ) Ebay, Look for someone with good feedback.

    Regards.
