Sky Germany - Question

[detroit cougar]

Hi,
Does the official Sky Germany box have a similar epg to the UK and Italian versions?
Will the Germany box have the free to air channels like ZDF and ARD listed or do they need tuned in to the other channel option like in the UK Sky set up?
Wiki has the channel names and numbers for the Italian epg but I can't find one for the German version. Does any body know of one?
Thanks

epg similar. There are many more free to air channels.
In fact the pay tv has struggle in Germany because the FTA is very good. I don't know anything about Wiki. I just tuned it in and move the TV channels were I want to.
The untertitel on WDR is excellent 150. ARD 150. PRO7 149
ZDF 777. Also if you understand a little German the sound quality on the films,can be better than 28 degrees films.

Unlike Sky UK, Sky Deutchland viewing card works on a lot of off the shelf receivers, They have launched a stand alone Sky receiver here in Germany but its not requires as standard, Thier EPG is Free to everyone for Seven Days and can be received on any Receiver facing 19e and is not tied to a special receiver like SKY in the UK.

Thanks for the help folks. I have seen the Pace DS 830box and was considering getting it but when using the sky.de website I see they are doing a Sky+ box. Can somebody tell me the make/ model number of this box?
Cheers
