Haye v Harrison on 2 boxes?

08-11-2010, 15:35

My son is having a few mates around on Saturday to watch the boxing, if we pay for the fight on the downstairs box will i be able to go upstairs and watch it in peace on the box upstairs as well? or will we have to pay twice? we have the VIP 50 Package.

If i remember correctly you have to pay twice.

I've bought PPV on the box in the living room before but got tired and watched the rest of the show in the bedroom. Had to order it again on the bedroom box but only got charged once.

Get your son to ask his mates to chip in Â£3 each and it should pay for it on one box, that just leaves you to pay for your own PPV event on the box upstairs
(Or you could try and search for one of the dodgy streams on 'tinternet)

Get a satellite dish, point it at astra 1 (19.2) and watch the fight free to air on Das Erste (HD with an mpg4 capable box/sat card). Really can't understand how many plebs pay sky to watch ppv.

It's cheaper than buying a satellite dish

I imagine a lot more 'plebs' will be paying for PPV events since Virginmedia changed encryption

The fact is it is transmitted completely free to air on the Astra 1 German Channel Das Erste. It is completely irrelevant what encryption is being used on UK channels as the point I am making is why pay to watch it on an English channel when it is free to watch on the German one. Many people may be able to receive it in this way but just not be aware.

Anyone with an old sky analogue set up pointing at 19.2 E can receive it as well as those with multi sat lnb or motors. Obviously if you don't have any of these then it is not possible and you can only view the English Channels.

can you do this with a a normal sky dish

atlas15 · 13-11-2010, 13:17

you can if you turn your dish to 19.2 but you will need a universal satellite box.
Something for next time, a sky dish approx Â£20.00 a satellte box out of maplins Â£25.00/Â£30.00.
Das Estate sd and hd excellent channel for boxing
which the Germans are a big fan of.
And it,s freetoair.
I,ve watched all the big fight,s on this channel
just turn the dab radio on Radio Five Live for commertry.
