You need enough spare connections on the lnb, depending how many you need you can get quad and octo lnb's, they are only £20 and a straight swap if you needed more. | |

You still need a feed from the dish yes, luckily I could run them all easily. | |

I stuck a spare box in the rents room and got one for the garage, even if they've not got full packages the picture is still better than my aerial and the cards can be swapped about if need be. | |

I have a spare normal sky box you can have to use as a digi box, was going to bin it but if anyone wants it let me know. | |

Excellent it will mean I dont have to watch DVDs for an entire week. The standard box will also be going in the bin as I will be having a VM or Sky HD Box put in at my new gaff... | |

It will work as a freesat box without buying any card, the card automtically downgrades to that. | |

There is a one-off £25 (i think) fee to pay for a Sky freesat card. | |

It will act as a freeview box yes but you won't be able to record. | |

It won't let you record without a valid Sky card. | |

Think you need to get a viewing card to watch the free channes (which i belive is free from sky, or maybe small fee). | |
