    No, it's not as simple as just buying the box and pluggin it in.

    The box comes with a Quad LNB, which must replace the single LNB on the dish. The Sky+ uses 2 of the 4 outputs on the Quad, and as such, you'll need another cable running from the dish to where the Sky box is. Then you need to ring Sky and activate Sky+ recording.

    Not sure of special offers on Sky+ upgrade, but no harm in ringing a few local dealers and Sky directly.
