Yes. This and many other questions are answered in my book "Installing Sky Digital TV".

IMPORTANT

Before you take your Digibox away from home, note the following:

1. Digiboxes often suffer from faulty power supplies but the fault does not show up until the Digibox has been unplugged, allowed to cool down, then plugged in again. So before disconnecting it for packing, unplug the mains power for a couple of hours then reconnect it. Allow the Digibox to "reboot" then make sure that it works and continues to work.

2. Getting a smart card authorised outside the UK can be a problem. Firstly because you are not supposed to do this, consequently BskyB will be very suspicious of a request to authorise the card from outside the UK. Secondly because the signal may be too weak for reliable reception of the brief signal sent to authorise the card. Therefore, make sure the card and Digibox work together in the UK before taking them on holiday!
