(interception of satellite/pay TV signals) We have a newsgroup called net.video here, created in Feb and having 1 message. Perhaps that would be better for this discussion? I am concerned because there is an arpanet home satellite list which would be interested, but to be gatewayed it needs its own newsgroup. Re the actual discussion, my opinion is that if I had enough money to make it an easy purchase Id get a dish. Unencrypted stuff will be there for some time, either because of commercial interest in TVRO viewers or because getting crypto boxes installed at all (existing) recievers may be difficult (all legit receivers that is). Besides, even if they all get encrypted you can help with the private SETI effort! ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
