Sky+ HD Question

I already have Sky+ and thinking about getting Sky+ HD
My current set up is Sky+ in living room with a standard sky box in other room (multiroom option)
My question is - If I get Sky+ HD (on self set-up) can the existing Sky+ be moved to replace the standard box I have in other room?
And if so can I do all this myself

It can but it will require one more feed from the dish as Sky+ uses 2 feeds.And if so can I do all this myself

Depends on whether you can run another cable from the dish.0 -
As above, you will need two feeds to the second box you have. However, if you have two boxes now and one has two feeds you'll have a Quad LNB on your dish that will support this.
Why don't you call Sky and ask them if they can handle this as part of your upgrade from Sky+ to Sky HD... they'll probably do it without charge if you sign up for another 12 months.0 -

Sky do this as standard if you upgrade,just tell them you want to relocate the existing Sky+ to the bedroom,was known as a "Sky+ & relocate" on my jobsheet.The was no charge for this to be done.0 -

The OP said he was going to upgrade to Sky HD on self setup. As no engineer would call it's not going to be done for nothing.0 -

But surely if there is no charge for an engineer to do it then that would be the better option as you would not need to do it yourself.0
