Anyone know where I might pick up a CAM module for topup tv/setanta reasonably cheap?
I already have a viewing card.

CAM module
There are some cheap ones on ebay, but they are not setanta/topup tv branded - does this matter?
Do all CAMs work the same way or are they all different?

Yes, no & yes.
A cheap CAM from Ebay will work, but only if it is compatible.
Any CAM that is TopUp branded or Setanta DTT (I don't know if there are incompatible Setanta Sat CAMS out there) should be OK.
The Generic CAM that is known to work is the Aston CAM version 1.5 or greater. Confusingly, they don't all have the version number printed on them, mine says P/N 901274 Rev 1.1, but it apparently is a Version 1.5 CAM.
