Sky RF2 Output Problems: My neighbour has just replaced an old CRT TV in the bedroom with a Panasonic LX26X20B digital TV. The old CRT TV was tuned to the RF2 output analogue channel and all was OK for watching Sky upstairs. The new Panasonic appears to have a digital tuner but no analogue tuner in order to tune in the Sky box RF2 outlet. Can I use this TV to view Sky in this manner? If not could I use a diggie box to feed in the analogue input and end up with a digital signal being presented at the aerial input to the TV. (Only wants to watch Sky sports channels upstairs) Any help greatly appreciated on how to conquer this problem.

I currently run a standard Sky box and wish to upgrade to a Sky Plus box. However rather than pay the full Sky price/installation charge I plan to purchase a second hand plus box and carry out the install requirements (LNB and add. satellite feed) myself. My question is: Will I be able to use my existing Sky box viewing card in the second hand Sky plus card? If so, do I need to inform Sky and or do I have to order a new viewing card ? - if so how much do Sky charge?
