I am a current Sky Angel customer and I am setting up a new Sky Angel system for my parents.
I need a yellow card for a 301 I have and am looking at buying one online and I see many descriptions. What's the difference between all these different descriptions? I've seen SW2 card, and ROM 101 and ROM 102. Some specific ROM cards sell for more than others, why? Are they better? I'm not looking for anything other than what would have come originally in this receiver.

As Iceberg said, call Sky Angel. That is the only way to get a legal card. You cannot use any of the cards off e-bay, unless you are hacking. Hacking a Christian service would be quite ironic.
 
It depends on how far into the religion you go lol. You could probably buy a used receiver for the same price or cheaper than what a card costs seeing how they are $50.

Why not?.......If there is no balance owed on the card and the card has never been altered, then he could get one from Ebay! Or......get a new 311, which has the built-in card, for around the same price.
 
and its more than likely that even if a virgin card (never used) bought off Ebay will NOT be activated by E* which handles the activations for Skyangel... Your best bet is to call skyangel and get a card sent to you in the name of the account holder.
