    Sky

    Hi folks,

    I already have Sky digital and i've managed to acquire another dish and lnb. If i were to get hold of another digibox is it possible to set it up in another room independently? I'd obviously need another viewing card, would Sky send one out to me if i asked?. I don't subscribe to any of the services, just the free to view channels.

    I don't think for a minute Sky would send me another card as i have one already but there must be other people who have done this. I suspect the only way would be to subscribe to another package, digibox.. etc

    Cheers.

    I dont believe you need a second dish, just another digibox & viewing card.http://existing.sky.com/multiroom.asp

    I think you only need to get the lnb that has multiple output, i think they have four iirc, then just get a cable and link to your digibox.

    If you don't put your card you don't even get ITV. - last time I checked anway.
    You've got to have a dream, if you don't have a dream, how you gonna have a dream come true?
