Cyfra and Al Jazeera

    I'm hoping someone on here has a few minutes to spare to answer a few questions. I've read through a lot of the threads in this section and I just need to clear up a few things in my head.

    I was thinking of getting Cyfra+ and Al Jazeera, these both work off Hotbird as far as I can figure out from here.
    So is it possible to get a receiver that will read both these cards with 2 card slots and where would I get one/any recommendations?
    Or if I get a receiver with 1 card slot is it as simple as pulling 1 card out and inserting the other?
    If I have a fixed dish will both these cards work off the same dish?

    Thank you in advance, any help would be appreciated.

    Any receiver which is have 2 slot for smart cards or one smart and one CI,and can let access Seca4/viacess will be fine in this configuration.

    I ended up getting an icecrypt s2000cci and I'm just about to buy an Al Jazeera card viaccess 4 and a cyfra card from satsklep, will I need a cam for both or will one of them work in the conax smart card slot?
