Upgrading to sky+   
The current set up is as follows;

1 Dish
1 Digibox in lounge
1 Digibox in daughters bedroom (extra £15/month)

My other daughter has moved,(there is a dish there) and I would like to give 
her my standard digibox (lounge) and buy a sky+ box on ebay to replace it.

Would I need a new LNB ?
Best sky+ box to buy?
Will the box work ok for other daughter without a viewing card?
(She has no BT line)

I have the full package...sports, movies etc.

Any help appreciate.

Chances are it will be cheaper and easier to get Sky to put the Sky+ in.

The digibox in your lounge , has, I presume a card in it, so she should take 
that with her, otherwise she wont get (IIRC) BBC1, anyway you can check now 
by just pulling the card out now and seeing what you can get, why did you 
ask about not having a card? You can buy one for £20.
