Re: Sky Plus

my husband is a satellite and tv engineer he does a lot of broadcasting work for sky and said the reson sky+ receivers have dropped down to 49 pounds is that sky want to get rid of them as the new sky HDTV receiver is coming out within the next few months and it will have a hard disc (sky+) built in to it so if i was any one wanting to buy a sky plus box id wait for the hdtv receiver to come out

This is done by going into the Services menu and then into the hidden installer setup menu. Once in Services press 4 then 0 then 1 then select (don't look at the screen as you may think that pressing 0 hasn't done anything but it has). Select option 4 for RF outlets and turn RF Outlet Power Supply to ON. You will need a magic eye and another remote (unless you keep moving your remote between locations) which you can get from places like Maplin (Google "Sky magic eye" for other sellers).
