I'm not 100% certain but would be pretty confident in saying that it wont be compatible with the digital network in NZ. The digital system here is basic, to say the least, but still relys on the software in the box (and for any one whos interested - Sky also needs a subscriber card which wouldnt be compatible!) to decode the signal, and the UK will have a different decoder for sure.

Good luck with the house, nail biting times!!
