Hello, greetings to all.
I am a collector of old satellite viewing cards. You can view my collection here.
I only write the accompanying texts in Czech, because translations are now reliably provided by Google.
I want to ask if you have any such old forgotten satellite viewing cards at home. I would be interested in them. Thanks.
 
Hello @Hugocz !

I've got 2 black Tntsat cards, can give you 1 if you re interested

Nice collection! After looking through all your cards I reaslised I've actually owned quite a few of them over the years.

I may have a spare Sky UK "Yellow House" card somewhere if you'd like one but I probably won't be able to get it for a couple of weeks.
 
By the "Yellow House" card, do you mean this one? Yes, I would like to. Please contact me by email. You can find it on my website.

i have a Euro1080 card somewhere, if i knew were you could have that. Think it was the First HD channel you could watch on Sat.
 
I have literal bags of old cards, some of the quite rare and dear to me but some not so much.

Happy to share any of particular interest or perhaps even a swap.

Splendor. My heart jumped for joy.
I probably won't have suitable cards to exchange. But if I can buy something, let's discuss the details via email.
 
I have plenty of cards that you can have for some beer tokens and postage. I'll dig out all that I don't need or have several of. Send me a PM.
 
Here is what I found in my drawer.

I managed to get Filmnet and Canal Digital cards. The Oscam program reads the ATR, but can no longer identify the cards. What tool could be used to read these older cards? I would like to at least identify the CAS system.
 
I would get an old Phoenix interface with an old Windows machine. I use WinExplorer to probe various cards.

FilmNet will be Eurocrypt. Canal Digital is either Conax or Eurocrypt. In the picture from @Nalleman above your post, the Eurocrypt Canal Digital card is the one on the bottom-right (with the stripes). The one with the TV is Conax.
 
If I remember correctly the Multichoice card used Irdeto.
That card together with a box from Nokia was used when digital sat TV was introduced in Sweden. I was a pioneer back then and my box had serial number 26.
After a short while I got it changed to a new box (made for Conax) free of charge.
 
There were two Multichoice packages - one in Videocrypt 2/PAL broadcast on 19E for, primarily, the Central European market. Then it was moved to digital/Irdeto. There two were card designs as well for Videocrypt 2. One in the picture above and another was a white card with TV on it. Irdeto only used the design shown in your picture.

Multichoice is still alive in parts of Africa under DSTV brand :)
 
I also use WinExplorer. So should I try sending different instructions to the card and wait to see which one the card responds to? That's what I was hoping some program would do for me. Also, there might already be some program for ATR analysis. I thought Oscam could handle it. But he can't do enough. :-)
I have already added these cards to the website and with ATR.
