    How do you do this?

    The Sky boxes have a RF2 output you connect this to another TV in the house via Coax cable and a magic eye on the other tv so you can then watch sky on another tv in the house and also change channels as well

    Can someone please tell me how I know what version box I have. Not that it matters I don't think.

    Just curious.

    New DFD is 28.10.2018 due to paying the absolute maximum.

    Thanks to everyone on the DMP forum, and to SC for helping me out of this huge hole.

    Just rang freephone & asked for cancellations. Put straight through & I explained that I had heard about the refurb Sky+ for £49.

    He didn't sound very happy but went away to ask about them.
    Result: installation due on July 13th & NO mention of multiroom.
    Thanks.
    Going down the Oteley Road to see the Shrewsbury aces! :T

    managed to get myself sky half price for the next 3 months, but they refused to offer me sky+ without the multiroom, they insisted the best offers were sky+ with multiroom.

    I explained that I live alone etc but no budging on the sky+
