RE: OT Sky Digiboxes



Matthew,

 

AIUI on my info, the card and the box are “married” so you cannot just swap the card over, sorry L

All this talk about sky digiboxes made me realise that my amstrad DRX100 is probably crap as well as out of warrenty.

 

If I were to ebay myself a new digibox, is it just the case of swapping the box and the viewing card?  Or is there some other secret serial number that sky need to know.

 

If its the former - with the exception of the 'Buy a sony' thread - I might by accident buying a similar age box - is any one aware of a website with comparisons (and ages) of the boxes so that I can make an informed choice?

 

Thinking further - where do you obtain free to air cards if I wanted to use the replaced box elsewhere, and what sort of double lnb would I need to purchase to share the dish between two boxes?

 

Matthew - whose world is suddenly opening up with different possibilities.
