what sat receiver to buy?
Hello,
Newbie to sky question.
I have an active sky subscription, with a SKy+hd box in the livingroom, another sky+hd box in my sons room on a multiroom sub and a third non pvr skyHD box on freesatfrom sky card.
If I want to watch something in my bedroom that is on sub, I take the sky+hd box from downstairs and wire it up in my bedroom, reversing in the morning.
Needless to say, this is a pain. Is there a sat box I can buy that will take my legal valid card and decode my channels so I dont have to do the box shuffle any more?

Best bet would be to get another Sky box off ebay if that's all it's going to be used for. If you need something more complicated then some Dreamboxes can use Sky cards I belive - but those are expensive. A sceond hand SKY HD box shouldnt cost much off ebay
A Technomate TM-5402HD will do what you want, all you would do is swap your card instead of your box! As it stands your card will enable you to watch the basic package of channels with no problems, but extra subs like movies and sport will need a little more input on the 5402!
Previous poster said get another Sky box, but that does not help you in what you want?
Google is your friend!
It would take 15 months of mulitroom sub before breaking even. Is there nothing cheaper?
or get a video sender but a bind and dearer.
