Re: Sky+ SDI Output



Hi Paul

yes you can either purchase the mod kit on its own for £95 ex VAT and self
fit (as per the instructions that Gareth pointed out at
http://www.irj-tech.com/skysdi.html
) , or we can provide a complete supply
and fit service for v1 boxes where the customer provides the box.
The only thing I would mention is that the solder points on the Sky box are
very small - so self install is not really suitable for anyone that is a
'have-a-go' solderer (I would class myself in that league!), you need to be
comfortable working at that kind of scale.
Thats really why be brought out the complete pre-modded units with
warranty,
people were contacting us who had seen the results but didnt have the
skills
to do the DIY route.

cheers
David
