Icecrypt box

[Rds559]

just got back from Spain and France using our icecrypt box and we never see one icecrypt police detector van, lucky again

I got one of those with my dish but have never used it yet. What's the issue with them?

 

[Rds559]

I was told that they were illegal as they pinch the frequency some European satellite,but never meet anyone who’s been stop.
Just enjoy it you get itv and bbc and others all over Europe

 

[Christoph]

Ok thanks. I was told it would get UK tv in Europe but not that it could be illegal. Will give it a try this summer.

Brilliant bit of kit, have been able to receive BBC, ITV AND a few other stations in Spain and Portugal.

ps while using Icecript we hook on to Interstat 907 satilite.

There are actually several boxes that will do this though the Icecrypt is the most widely known. They connect to a satellite called intelsat 907 and get signals intended to provide a backup in the UK for the freeview service. They are encrypted and you need a BISS key to decrypt them. It used to change regularly but it hasn't for several years. You can get a picture with a sixty cm dish in most places though it can degrade easily in heavy rain. As this is a private encrypted service it is technically illegal to access it but I have not heard of any one being done. It does mean though that you get no help setting up from the manufacturers and suppliers of adapted boxes tend to be small operators. The rapid growth of IPTV in it's various forms and easier access to good mobile internet mean that support for this is falling away rapidly, and it is now mainly in the hands of enthusiasts who can set up the boxes

Icecrypt no longer exists. Ive one to sell when I get round to it.

 

[Rds559]

How do you mean they no longer exists don’t understand.

More chance of winning the Euromillions than getting caught watching TV you already have a licence for.......
