Hi, i'm just a newby and have a couple of queries i hope u guys might be able to help me with.

First of all i have a Fortec Star Sigma (_http://www.fortecstar.com/estore/storefront/default.asp?ProductID=96&CategoryID=4) reciever, so my question is:

I am looking to pick up some Scandinavian channels from Finland and Sweden, which i believe are on Thor 3/5 (http://www.telefotbal.ro/listtv.php?s=17) and use Conax.

With my receiver, do i need to buy a Conax CAM, and which smart card to go inside it? Finnish TV website says "The DTH-satellite transmissions come from the orbital position 1 degree West, they are MPEG2/DVB-S-coded and the encryption utilizes the CONAX CA-system"

Thanks guys, i will appreciate your help!
 
Most programs on Thor 3/5 are distributed by Canal Digital. You need a legal subscriber card and most probably a Conax CAM and a CI device, unless you would try to get a softcam such as Yanksee or others to run with your DVB application. Which devices are supported depends on your HW and SW, sorry I don't use the Fortec Star Sigma so I cannot give you any advice on this one.
