    can you swap a sub card from one sky box to another and will it work straight away or is there a delay etc?

    The premium channels won't work at all without a phone call to Sky with Box and Card details

    The ordinary mix pack channels will work fine.

    If a card is left out or box has no signal or box unplugged from mains, "eventually" it will need up to 24hrs to re-activate.

    We don't know how long "eventually" is. Sometime it is hours other times maybe a week.

    Does it have to be without the mains for long before it de-activates?

    The parents would want to bring it to another house less than 2 hours away each weekend.

    Thanks.

    A few hours should be fine. The cards can take a few days to de-activate usually.
