Reading somewhere that you require a sky freesat card to use with your Dreambox 500S to receive sky channels using my existing sky dish, is this correct?

all you need now is the 800HD :-0, a few guys on DW have ordered from this guy, about the best price I've seen, includes shipping, also as with all 800's you can pop in a cable tuner if ever the N3 issue gets sorted ;-),..here's a very hand site for dish installations.
