HI 2 all just looking for some info for my mate he has got sky at moment and was looking to buy a sky plus box of a mate but wasn't sure if it would work on his sky? Also he wanted 2 put a box upstairs does he need to put a multi feed on end of sky dish to do this. sorry 1 more if he phoned sky and said his card is broken they would send him a new one but would they stop that card from working if he put it in his second box? many thanks to anyone who replys

Please do not use txt spk on the forum - its difficult to read for many of our members and they wond help you if they cant read it.

Yes you wiill need to put a multi output lnb on the dish - and run extra cables.

Sky will happily send him another card - and instantly disable the first card If he wants the same channels on both boxes then he will need to ask for a multiroom card - and have both boxes connected to the same phone line for the life of the multiroom sub.
