Installing Sky Digital

    Hey

    We already have Sky Digital installed into one room in the house which was then turned into Sky Plus so we now have a spare Sky Box. We're looking to connect that box up to the Sky Dish now and subscribe to Sky Multiroom.

    To that end, would anybody be able to give me a checklist of the things I need to do in order to do this?

    1. What connectors do I need for each end of the coaxial cable
    2. Is there any particular type of coaxial cable that I need to buy
    3. Where is the cheapest place to buy a drill bit capable of going right through an external wall to bring the cable into my house
    4. Does my other Sky Box have to be connected to the telephone line at all times?
    5. Finallly, what would be the cheapest place to find a receiver which I could install into a third room just to get a few free digital channels, without paying any subscription. Looking on UK sites like Currys they seem to range from 15 to 300 pounds and I don't know the difference between any of them. Really just looking for the cheapest option for that room because if it is expensive we will skip it.

    Cheers!!
