All NT* subscribers I believe got their new cards recently to allow them watch the channels they've subscribed for.
And your point is ????? Kryptview dont need a card for dancing or singing as its purreing away nicely

Well I was open to correction but I was assuming that the cards sent by NT* recently was for subscribers to view TV over nagra 3 on the standard boxes supplied to them :-)
Did NT* supply Kryptviews?

fergus are chorus /ntl and upc part of the same company? excuse my ignorance in advance but considering that ntl have moved or in the process of moving to nagra 3 in dublin and other parts of the country,how is it that some of you guys are with chorus and others are with ntl in dublin as as far as i am aware we only have chorus in cork,the reason im not too sure is that i only changed from sky quite recently as you will probablly know from my early threads...anyway regards.

thanks for the reply mossymor but even more confused now considering that upc are the parent company of both ntl and chorus but it seems that ntl users are being affected by the change over now. i guess you would think that both would be affected anyway prob down to logistics and im sure ill find out soon enough when chorus is hit.

UPC Communications Ireland Limited, which trades primarily under the brand name Chorus NTL, is Liberty Global Europe's operation in Ireland. It is part of the UPC Broadband division of Liberty, UPC being an abbreviation of that company's previous name, United Pan-Europe Communications
History
Liberty Global and its predecessors UGC Europe and Tele-Communications Inc have had shareholdings in Chorus Communications and its predecessor, Princes Holdings (Irish Multichannel), since the company's formation in the early 1990s. Originally a joint venture with Independent News and Media, IN&M sold its shares to Liberty in 2004. In May 2005, NTL agreed to sell its Irish operations NTL Ireland (previously Cablelink) to Liberty Global. Morgan Stanley held the shareholding until Competition Authority approval was obtained. This occoured in December 2005 and UPC Ireland came into being on 12 December 2005.
even chorus is really about 10 mergers/takeovers starting i think with fonny cliffords cable company in limerick way back when i remember if it worked for a day without being hacked into was great . hacking into then was cutting the cable and every1 after the cut was without a signal.often done with a hatchet to hack the cable.. hence the name hacking..lol

It will be all the more sweeter when the codes are eventually broken & we're all back on again.
I've no sympathy for U*C or NT*ell or whatever they call themselves. Their "award winning" service is a shambles & they should be ashamed of how they deliver their service. Putting it mildly - it's very very poor.
If everything works ok then you've nothing to worry about - but if they say...(in my case) come to connect a new subscriber in your appartment block & disconnect you by accident, then take 4 weeks to figure out what they did wrong in the 1st place (each time having to speak & explain the problem to someone new on the phone who really doesn't give a toss). Not to mention having to take 2 half days to let the engineer in to check everything (which there was no need because the service just stopped so it's wasn't anything to do with inside the appartment - not that they listened!!!).
And then follow it all up by banging one's head against the wall trying to explain to those fine intelligent people that "no thanks" you'd rather not pay for the previous month of hell trying to get them to plug a wire back in in my building!!!!
All in all about 9 weeks of phone calls - on only 1 occassion I got a smart individual who actually followed something up & figured things out.
You could be forgiven for wanting to get your own revenge. In my case it's basic package all the way for as long as possible once the codes are back. I'll even make a donation to the codebreakers.
And if the NT*ellend people are actually reading this - then maybe try getting things right with your service delivery for a change. Might be a good starting point...
Rant over.
Hi,
First let me say that I have a very serious problem with the word "engineer" being used to describe a brain donor either sitting on the end of a phone line or coming to my house to fix a simple cable problem. To me, an engineer is a person who goes to college to study a subject, earn a degree in that subject & actually understand the subject. NONE of the people that I have had the misfortune of dealings with fit any 1 of the above, so I really do wish people would stop using the term engineer to describe them!! Being able to recite a few technical terms that you do not understand has never impressed me.
What people fail to understand or see hers is that to provide a proper service requires a very good understanding of RF techniques, things like attenuation, vswr, mis-match, terminating impedance etc, & thats before you even get to all the analogue or digital buzz words.
If anyone can find one of those "engineers" who can explain any one of the above terms I'll be glad to call them a reasonable techie. BTW, there may be people reading this rant who know who I am by now, but i feel i should explain that I have worked in the field of RF for over 30 years both lecturing, designing, repairing & as a Radio Ham

you cannot use a cable box with a dish plus you can not load free to air channels on a box,free to air equals satelite dish plus satelite box.
