Amstrad DRX500 Digibox by
Paul Hyett
Does anyone else have one of these (possibly as the 2nd in a multi-room
package)?
I thought mine was faulty, but when I phoned Sky (with the inevitable

Apparently a number of people have been having problems with this box

Telephone Connection - Do you still need it? by
SPC
I seem to remember reading somewhere that you don't have to have a new
installation connected to the phone line anymore. However, everything I've
read from Sky says you still do need to.
So, do you or not?
