[B]Hello all,
Hope this is the correct catagory for this question, apologies if not. My enquiry is regarding the freesat decoder box for the 28E satellite - is it possible (legal) for me living in Denmark to purchase one such decoder in the uk and have it sent over (or get it myself for that matter) without it being seized by customs or similar?
I don't know if it is against the terms & conditions of freesat - that is if the decoder is only for use in the UK (or not?).
Also, should it be possible to have over here, does anyone know if the signal standard / coding standard is a once only affair or would I have to purchase another decoder in say, 5 years time?
Some years back, I obtained a uk video crypt decoder which worked great ....for 6 months then they changed the standard to videocrypt 2 whereupon the decoder was useless and had to be dumped.
Just a bit nervous of repeating the same mistake.
Thanks,
Conaxthewarrior
