Re: Sky plus help

["Kevin Ellis" <forum_mail@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Richard,

I will be doing my install this weekend. You can do the change yourself its
not too difficult so long as you are happy going up a ladder and ruuning a
second CT100 cable.
I bought the box from Simplydigital.co.uk already upgraded with a 250gb
drive. Could have don it myself but could not be bothered at the end of the
day.
So long as your subscription is over £30 a month the sky plus service is
free, and its simply a call to sky to tell them you need to switch the box
from a standard to a sky plus, should be simple.

I will report once its all done.

Kevin
