Mend Pace Sky+ digibox Sky Record Channels

Two Satellite Sky+ boxes in same room?

I'm wanting to use two sky+ boxes in the same room to be able to record upto four channels. One of the boxes will have my viewing card installed so I can record pay channels the other will be without a card and will be used for just recording free TV (ITV, Channel 4, etc). Does any body know which boxes use different remotes, if I get two boxes the same then they will both operate at the same time from one remote! The box I have at the moment is a PACE Sky+ digibox. I understand that I will require a quad LNB to run two units.

All Sky+ Digiboxes use the same remote control so whichever models you get you'll get the problem of them both responding to the remote control.

A SkyEye device may solve your problem as it would let you control both Sky+ Digiboxes individually in the same room. Check out http://www.skyeye.force9.co.uk/skyeye8h.htm for more details.

You will need a Sky Viewing card in the second box because Sky+ won't work without one. (Even for FTA channels.) So the remote question does not arise. You may be able to get around this by taking out a Sky Multi-room subscripotion which will get you a second Viewing Card.
