Gavin - I use a Technotrend TT-budget S-1500 DVB-S card with the matching CI
daughter card (you then insert the CAM into the daughter card)

BY the way - if you want the SKy premium channels (Sky Sports for example) -
you need to enter your Sky digibox number into the CAM (I used the CAS 3+
interface - but there are other ways of doing it).  For the more basic
encrypted channels (e.g. More 4, Discovery) - there's no need and the
default works fine.  Most versions of the Predator firmware work, and since
you're not looking to do anything naughty - I'd stick with an older firmware
- I'm using 3.20. I actually had more issues with the more recent T-Rex
firmware.
