cathy: You can, consult the manual for the remote that came with the Sky box, or press the INTERACTIVE button and see the "Customer Services" option.

lisa: You should be able to use either connection from the dish.
When you make the connection - with the mains power off - ensure that the inner wire is connecting and that the outer "shield" part has no stray wires touching the inner wire.

lee: Yes, as long as Sky have your payment details and you keep the box attached to the phone line you can use Box Office.
