I have three questions I would like ask please.

1. I have a Sky+HD box which I will be canceling my subscription. I would like to know if there is any way to keep recording programs to the HDD.

2. Would I still be able to view recorded programs on my Sky+HD box after ending my subscription after Sky have set my box to Freesat only.

3. If the answer to the above two questions is No and I have to buy a new freesat HD PVR would I be able to get BBC Scotland ??

Thank you for your time.
John.

1 You can keep them just will not be able to watch them or record anything



2 No unless you pay sky £10.25 every month



3 YES if you buy a FREESAT PVR you will be able to set it to recieve BBC Scotland as your main BBC 1 channel or leave it as another channel ,

I have a HUMAX PVR and am very pleased with it

I hope you find what you are looking for, other poster's on the FREESAT and FREESAT + forums know a lot more than I do

That level only applies to FTA/FTV recordings, it could be more if you want to be able to watch existing recordings. For existing recordings from subscription channels you still need a valid sub for the channel, so if it is some recordings from the movie channels for instance ISTR that is currently £37.50 a month.
