Cable Descrambling
If you have cable TV but are not fortunate enough to have the Premium services,
here is a simple way to steal Cinemax, The Movie Channel, Showtime, the
Disney Channel, and any other service that appears as a bussing fuzzy picture
(that you can ALMOST get clearly by fine tuning). This method also works on
channels that appear as a lined flashing screen that produce a beeping sound.
These channels are not scrambled, but instead a garbage transmission is sent
at the same frequency. Therefore, in order to receive the movie servcices
clearly, you must filter out the garbage.
Here is a simple way to do this:
1) Examine the back of your TV set. Find the VHF antenna terminals (these are
the antenna terminals that the cable service is hooked up to). Get a piece of
antenna wire (about 3 feet long). Strip one end of the wire and and attach it
to the VHF terminals along with the cable. Tune in to one of the movie services
and adjust the fine tuner until you get the cleanest picture. Cut off about 1/4
inch of the antenna wire and adjust the fine tuner. Continue to do this until
you get a nearly perfect picture (you should not have to cut off more than 6
inches of the antenna wire). Get a piece of aluminum foil and wrap it around
the antenna wire slide it up and down until you have a perfect picture. This is
a simple yet effective way to get movies for free.

Pirating Cable Premium Channels
(Written By Exodus)
This is for all of you that have cable but don't have those
premium channels like HBO, Cinemax, and Playboy because your
parents are too cheap to get them or they think that you'll
become a stupid moron if you get them. Well, this will tell you
how you can get all those premium channels as a perfect, clear
picture at absolutely no charge.
First of all, you have to have one of those real old cable
boxes that don't have a remote control but the ones that have the
little buttons that you have to push (I don't know about the
other kind, but you can go ahead and try.)
What you do is open up your cable box with a small screw
driver or a thin knife. Inside you'll see some copper thingies (I
forgot what they're called) but anyways, they're thin and long.
Each one of these represents a channel. You'll also see these
little triangular things, which usually touch one of the copper
things. Well, if you haven't figured out already, when the copper
things are being touched by the triangular things, this means
that you're getting that channel on the channel number that the
triangular thing (from now on I'll call the triangular things
"triangles" and the copper things "coppers") represents.
The thing that you have to do is find all the coppers that
aren't being touched by any triangles. These are the premium
channels! Now, find a triangle that isn't touching a copper and
turn it so it touches the copper. That's all!! Now you have your
premium channels, at no charge. Just make sure that you set them
back if you ever turn your cable box in so that the cable company
doesn't find out what you've been doing.
May all your viewings be pleasant ones!
