Sky Plus Anyone

[Robert Chasmer <robert.chasmer@xxxxxxx>]

I've seen lots of dicussion on the list about Tivo and Show Shifter,
but not much about Sky Plus.  Has anyone got it yet?

I'm intending on buying one of the new boxes, and signing up to a new Sky
Sub, and have a few questions.  I already have a Sky Digital Dish from the
previous house owners, and have a freinds old Sky Digital Box with card.
I've been using this for the last 6 months no problems.

I run two new cables (CT125) from the dish to my lounge via the trunking I
installed in the walls, replacing the old lead that was installed down the
wall outside the front of the house.  The extra lead I insalled ready for
Sky Plus, both leads terminate onto a face plate in the lonuge.  I've
tested
both leads with my existing Sky Digi box.

* Are two leads all I need from the dish to the new box
* How many outputs will the new LNB likely have after the install (2, 4?)
* Will the installer likely throw a pady
* Will I get stung for a 100ukp install or can I get away with 50ukp.  I
already have the equipment but *not* a subscription.

Thanks for any help


Rob

P.S. I got a 2Mb Pronto for Xmas, which I've programmed up all via the
remote.  I'm now taking my first steps with ProntoEdit, any tips for
newbies?
