Babeshows without Sky
I cancelled by Sky sub a few weeks ago and while I miss none of their Sky channels I do miss the ability to record the babe channels occasionally - especially now with S66 seemingly pushing things a little.

I know I can get the Sky+ features for £10 PM, but I'd rather not. My other alternative is a PVR on freeview, but I'm not sure which of the babe channels are available that way.

Any info or clarification on this would be appreciated.

^ Yes the babeshow satellite channels are not Sky channels. They are Astra channels. Any old freesat box or enabled TV will pick them up via your old dish. You can then record them as before.

Your other option is IPTV. Including streaming the website versions - either on a smart TV or from an applicable device.

The idea that the babeshows "are not that deep" is driven by those that don't wish to acknowledge how much effective customer service and a consideration of psychology impacts users' future interactions.

I believe that you don't have to have a Sky subscription to get most of the Babeshow channels. Just a privately purchased dish and box.

RE: Babeshows without Sky
Thanks for the replies everyone, although I'm still not entirely clear on what I can get - maybe more info is required.

I have Sky+ HD box (no subscription but can get all the babeshows). My TV is an oldish model but does have freeview built in. The freeview channels, as far as I understand, are received by my old tv ariel). It seems I can only get a couple of the babeshows this way, but they don't broadcast during the days??)

If I was to get one of these PVR boxes, would I hook it up to my Sky dish and be able to get all the channels I can with my Sky box??

@Dan Volatile says I can get the three babestation channels but only one of the S66 channels (all with erratic broadcast times). But @PussyPopper says he can get all the babe channels with his freeview box.

I'm still not altogether clear, I'm afraid.

No, I know this, but the ability to record is part of the subscription. No subscription, no record function.

RE: Babeshows without Sky
If you were to get a freesat box all you would have to do is disconnect the sky aerial wire and connect it to the freesat box, they have the same coaxial connections as the sky box.
The box that i have has two usb ports for external hard drives or a wifi dongle to watch youtube and other sites.
You can get them on ebay from £20 upwards, i've tried a few others like Dmyco, GTMedia And Smbox but i found freesat to be the best one
As for the channels the only one that does not broadcast during the day is get lucky because the phsycic channel is broadcasting

The info I gave is for Freeview which is what you asked for. PussyPopper was talking about Freesat.
