Sky multiroom self install?

    Hi,

    I'm living in a flat with absolutely no tv reception. The flat is underneath my landlady's house, and she has Sky but no terrestrial tv (no aerial). Her dish only has a single LNB. There's already a coax cable coming down to the flat (not sure from where, but I assume it goes to her attic). She has already said she'd be fine with me getting Sky in my flat.

    I have a Sky decoder sitting at home gathering dust, so my question is, how hard would it be for me to get my box hooked up to her dish?

    You would have to be connected to the same phone line as her and in any case she would have to sign up for the extra multi room point. You would also have to run a cable from the dish using a quad lnb and check that you are on the same electrical circuit for safety reasons.
