637149 2008-02-07 19:40:00 Add the movie channel at $30.00, and by my reckoning, $76.00 is more than $54.00. "Smithie 38" wanted the movies.

We're talking basic package here not all the extras..

637150 2008-02-07 21:12:00 I too am on UHF as all I want is Sports and Movies. I have enough trouble getting away from the screen with just these channels - hate to think what would happen if I had a few dozen more.

I occassionaly have problems with SKY but it is not specific to any channel so dont think my issue is the same as yours. I just put it down to weather or a bird sitting on my aerial, I have no idea really. It doesnt happen that much for me to worry about it.

Is it possibly the decoder?

:)

Oh yes you can. I get mine through Telecom and get the sports channel as an extra through SKY

A home phone line and Sky Startup plan costs me $79.59/month. A saving of around $8-9/month approx. All it takes is a call to Telecom. 3 minutes max. as you are buying a service. (Complaints take longer)

Been on it for a couple of years now and it is still available as my brother in law took my advice and changed to it a week ago.

Mind you, when I had UHF years ago I had 5 channels. Four were crap and Discovery and Sport was good. Now I have Digital, Sport is still good, Discovery/History/NG are still playing the programs from 10 years ago. The difference is that now, the other 23 or so channels are still crap.
