(and you also need whatever mounting kit is required for the type of dish you have) Only two outputs are required for Sky+, but each additional non-sky+ box requires another (single) output. As it happens, I have a spare, which you can have, provided I don't have to shell out any money to send it to you. (I'm in Portsmouth). It comes attached to a Sky minidish, which you can also have the pleasure of disposing of. At the moment, it is just taking up space in my front room, due to lack of anywhere to put it. A sky engineer came out to fix a broken hard disk in the Sky+ and for some reason best known to himself (because the old Grundig box was working quite happily with it), re-cabled and re-dished the job too. Wierd. |
