Videocipher II advert

[momixdj]

they were offering in this ad 4 years subscriptions but this channel (spacenet 1 transponder 18) was abruptly shutted down forever two years after this ads, about two weeks after they begin including 'gay porn' in their transmissions, leaving only tuxedo netwrok, Playboy Channel, and Rendezvous.

[infomercialtime]

ahh c band was great! always an adventure!

[strokadellic]

Rock N' Roll.

[mubd1234]

I would hate to be a 4 year subscriber. The company folded in 1990, 2 years after this was aired.

Call us, we'll turn you on.

How true are those words.

[atworkstation]

When we first bought our satelite dish at our old house, we should've got one of these.

[OPENARMS1981]

This guy sounds like Irene Cara;"What A Feeling".

[c64c64]

Nice, HIGHLIFE any one?

"Call us, we'll turn you on". Great line used to sell adult programming and/or personal services from this company.

[ReturnofRetroBoy]

That's a lot of dead presidents for wacking material.

[raydeen2k]

@ReturnofRetroBoy Well, considering we now pay that much and more for a computer plus 30-50 bucks a month for internet...that wasn't a bad deal for all-you-can-eat porn back then.

[delfmeek]

I remember people had fixed boards of the Videocipher II's back then. In fact, I have one of the boards stashed away in my parts closet somewhere, along with the rest of my obsolete K and KA band crap.

[grumpybb]

I think my dad had one of those "test chips" for his receiver too. Used to be able to get all sorts of move channels that way.

[delfmeek]

I remember as a kid, accidently stumbling across the Triple Exxxtasy channel. Sex Ed at it's best right there :)

[palmercomm]

Wait a minute. They sold a descrambler for $350 just so you can get a porn channel? I'd much rather pay the $395 plus shipping and avoid Exxtasy.

[tmastersat]

The Vc2 received all the major cable channels not just this one.

[RetroBoyWontDie]

Same here. Installer got me a hacked VCII so I could get passed sports blackouts. But it got the adult networks as well...w/o audio. As he said, you can do your own gruntin' and sweatin'.

[millan77039]

where can i find the movies of Candie Evans for that channel, one particular afternoon delight
