[QUOTE="Mew, post: 165006, member: 29012"] Hi gig From what I've read, the keep alive signal is transmitted by Sky but only the digibox can use it to refresh the card and keep it activated. I would guess that Sky use the same signal to downgrade a card to a Freesat From Sky one if you cancel your Sky subscription. For most of the deals with Sky you have to have a phone line connected for the first year or so but I think this is used to gather viewing statistics and for interactive services. After the contract period has elapsed this can be removed and this does not affect the ability of Sky to upgrade or downgrade cards. Mew [/QUOTE]
