Swapping Sky boxes??

    For the last year I have sky multiroom set up with a regular sky+ box in the living room and an ordinary sky box in the spare room. I now have bought a sky+HD box privately.
    I want to replace the sky+ box with the sky+HD box in the living room and replace the ordinary box with sky+ box in spare room.
    Is this easy to do?
    Do I need to contact SKY or can I do it myself?
    Will they charge me extra as I now will have two sky + boxes?

    Hi...

    Well,with having Sky + already,you should have a quad LNB. But you will need an extra feed run to that second box your putting in.(The one that's replacing the ordinary box).

    You will also need to contact sky anyway,as you'll need to pair the cards to the new boxes. They shouldn't charge you for that though.

    You may prefer to go with a private installer for the install though,as it would work out a bit cheaper than what sky would be looking for.

    Or,you could also do it yourself?
