You
don't actually need to ring Sky. You can get at it through the Installers
Menu.
Go
into System Setup. Press "0", "1", "Select" and you'll get the Installers
Menu
up. Then choose "6" for New Installation.
This
allows the card to be associated with the box automatically (IIRC, it dials
Sky
to do the work). It doesn't always work successfully - you may need to try
it a
couple of times.
Cheers,

You
should be able to ring sky and tell them you replaced the box
though.
What
you can't do is swap a card between two boxes on a regular basis, but I can
see no reason why you can't get them to sort your subscription out to move
itp
ermanently to the new box.....
You
need to ring the BBC I think it is to get the FTA card. I think
there's
a number in the tech support list you can bring up on the sky box.
Failing that, do a web search on sky digital
abroad/for ex-pats.
A
lot of ex-pats get granny or whoever to get the fta card (limited to
one
per address) and ship it over to them so they can get 'proper english
channels' and not just 'foreign muck'.
HTH,
Tony
