Yes!

- Although you would find using a Sky box a bit of a pain, due to having to use the 'other channels' menu to find anything to watch...

If you do have a Sky box, you should be able to find someone willing to do a swap (mmmmmmm??) - but any digital satellite receiver will work, and they're very cheap now.

If you think that there is any possibility that you will want to subscribe to Showtime, or any 'specialist' services (sport for instance) then make sure that it has a 'CAM' slot (for a Conditional Access Module) so that you can upgrade it to take the appropriate 'pay-card' in the future if desired.

Some cheaper boxes have a 'card-slot' with built in 'decryption', but they're often not suitable for the particular PAY channel that you want?

Not clear? - Don't worry - someone else will be along in a minute!

Sorry, I don't know where that question mark came from!

The penultimate paragraph should end "that you want."

If you wish to watch FTA channels on nilesat,any digital FTA satellite receiver will do.

Avoid skybox, that's not a FTA receiver.
