Every once in a while I get something like this...free cable T.V. for only $19! Well, it ain't exaclty free then, is it? It ain't exactly legal either, but I don't really have a problem with that aspect of it. :) And don't you love the way they contact you by e-mail, then they say DON'T RESPOND BY E-MAIL!!! Screw that...people should do it anyway. Just to keep 'em on their toes.

When your plans arrive you will find this to be a fun little project with
much to be learned and even more to be gained. Best of all I will rush you
the plans for free if you will simply enclose $2 to cover shipping and
handling. You can easily build the "Black Box" for around $12 to $16
yourself. The parts should be readily available at any Radio Shack or
Electronics store and most neighborhoods have one. I will include detailed
designs, parts list, and pictures. There are very few parts so you can
build this unit in just a few minutes whit no special skills needed. The
instructions are very informative, easy to follow and, as I said, come
complete with pictures. Please be informed that it is illegal to view the
pay stations and premium channels that this may allow you to receive unless
you first get permission from your cable company.
