Neil

Can you get them to install the box somewhere else - like in the bedroom
right next to the dish ? Then you could sort the actual installation out
yourself, might be easier than trying to negotiate with Sky.

Also, IIRC, the video channel on Keith's KAT5 units will handle a digital
audio stream, although you'd need to convert it from optical to electrical
though.

Just some thoughts :-)
