You're going to lose all your 'free' channels anyway in the next few weeks as Virgin rollout Nagra 3
& you wont be getting them back anytime soon

where do you live Huddersfield/W Yorks? - the network has an outage at the moment

[url= http://www.techwatch.co.uk/2009/12/03/virgin-rolls-out-nagra-3-in-leeds-area/ ]Yes countrywide[/url] - only some of they older Pace boxes will need changing, most will handle it with a card change

I've got one of the technical directors from Virgin coming in later today - I'll ask him how it's going ๐Ÿ™‚

'next few weeks' is actually 'next few months' then? ๐Ÿ™‚
doubt we'll get switched off before xmas. [i]if[/i] i was receiving channels i hadn't paid for, i [i]would have been[/i] doing so for three years, so getting everything for an orginal investment of about a 100 quid would be worth it, if there was owt worth watching of course...

Depends where you live, it may be sooner - they say they be finished migrating across by Easter

When you start losing the +1 channels, you'll know it's started
