Hmm!
Not sure if I can help with any of that stuff about it working in CH but this is the equipment that is used for Sky+ Digital http://www.thedigiboxshop.com/index.html?gclid=CIjz1MSIzpsCFc0B4wodJgnKJA you would have to get in touch with their tec side of things. I do have sky myself but it is the old digi system no + on it no HD recording either. try this site & let me know how you get on..

Well been in Switzerland a week as of Today.
Me, Dogs, etc all made it without too much of a hassle.
I might be able to be in the UK next week. Will need to get a UK post code so that I can get that Sky Card thing. I'll PM ya later Boomer to find out where you live etc etc...
I should be there in London for 2 days maybe 3. Would be great to be able to hook up for lunch etc.. Maybe toss back a few pints :)

That's not good. I am not going to be able to make those dates due to all
annual holiday time has been taken up now until Christmas.
Will pm my address & phone number to you now. Not sure why you need British sat
from here because sky channels can be bought in most all European countries & received in English ...
Brits watch all their favorite programs when on holiday in Spain Greece
Cyprus etc in apartments & hotels...Have to admit I don't know about Switzerland though

Hey Boomer,
See post 19 above. I messed up the dates :)
Wife is due to be in London this week. Thursday-Friday.
Don't think I'll make it this trip as planned. What I may end up doing is (if possible) Just having you pick up a sky HD box, add the movie packs etc etc and just pay you via paypal for it. There are 4 or 5 shops that sell the boxes, I just need to figure out what box :)
My new numbers =
new home phone
41 22 566 2717
new cell
41 79 917 1695

It looks like you are not going to be able to use my address..
Its because I already have a sky box & they have have this system were by they even know what channel you are watching & what equipment you use I don't have the sky + .. I have the old digi type the trouble with sky is they insist on fitting your equipment & to have + (plus) you need to have new twin LMB's fitted to the dish as a pose to the one
Plus I believe that shipping out there equipment to an EU country is a violation..
So I think you need to look into it lots or if you have a solution let no know.
It would seem they have it wrapped up
