Yes but NOT for the premium channels for which the card is matched to one receiver. In order to use your existing card for premium channels on a different receiver, you will have to ask Sky to re-authorise the card while it is in the new Digibox. They will require various information including the card number, version Number and the serial number from the menu screen. A second hand (used) Digibox can be authorised in this way, either with an existing smart card or with a new card.

No. The Sky Digibox has a built-in Conditional Access circuit which BskyB will not license for use in any other digital receiver. Only a Sky Digibox can receive encrypted Sky programmes. It can also receive a limited number of Free To Air foreign stations but is not terribly friendly to use in this way. You would need a second universal LNB on a larger dish, or two dish systems, in order to use the Digibox in this way.

No. You must phone BskyB with your serial number, version number and card number. They will reset the PIN via satellite transmission. Note that Sky cards remain the property of BskyB and are non-transferrable.

A plug-in CAM to add to the receiver or built in CAM (see question 5, if you don't know what a CAM is) CAM or decoder: You will need a plug in CAM or built in CAM which matches the channel that you want to watch.

The ITC (Independent Television Commission) does not allow broadcasters to transmit anything stronger than standard 18 certificate material from the satellite that you Sky dish is pointing at. Even if you decide to move your dish, foreign broadcasters DON'T transmit subscription hardcore porn using Videoguard ( the proprietary scrambling system used by the Sky Digibox) so you won't be able to subscribe to porn channels such as UltraBlue, SexView et al. using your Digibox.

No. The Lumicon Night-Sky H-Alpha Filter was designed exclusively for specialized dark sky astrophotography. It is simply a deep red filter intended for nighttime use with Kodak Tech Pan black & white film. In pure reflectors, it will work well. In refractors, not so well, because of its very broad band in the infrared. In Schmidt-Cassegrains, its performance is intermediate. Yes. The sizes are 48mm, 58mm, and 77mm. The 48mm fits all 2" eyepieces and accessories.

Most long distance travelers send self-addressed food boxes from home to outposts along the way (listed in the PCTA's Town Guide, Wilderness Press PCT guidebooks and Ray Jardine's PCT Hiker's Handbook) to be held until their arrival. A few start with a food box and a spare gear/clothes box, sending these one re-supply stop ahead, buying locally to replace what they use along the way. Postage can be less expensive this way and there is more flexibility and less need for a support person at home.
