    Sky+ installation

    Thanks Rolf, Just three more questions: If I use a twin LNB, then I will have two cables, or is the signal muxed into one? Will a callback still be required if the box is bought (ie not subsidised) Is it possible to activate the box (including callback) in the UK and then transport the box...

    Sky+ installation

    Can I buy an unsubsidised sky+ box for European installation? Can I use my existing dish/lnb/cable combo or does that need to be 'upgraded' also? Does sky have to enable sky+ remotely? Where's the best (cheapest) place to get a sky+ box? Rommel

    BBC back again!

    I live in Hanover (Germany) and have been using a minidish to pick up Sky Digital since the service began. When ITV firsted started transmitting I initially had reception problems, but the last 6 months everything has been fine. When BBC switched to 2D I once again had reception problems: all...
