Just get a 2nd multi room package for the Sky+ box.

full package = no

family package = yes (no sports or movies)

no recording features either on the sons box

full facilities only on the box its paired with

with no card all the son will get is freesat, not freeview , same as any of the boxes with cards removed

I know a guy (that old phrase again)...

Anyway i do know a guy who has FOUR multi room subs in one house.

He now has TWO sky dishes with Quad lnb outputs on each dish.
I said to him, why did they need a 2nd dish when they could have used an Octo (8 output) lnb from one dish & he said the sky engineer didn't know they existed so he had to put a 2nd dish up.

Don't know if he can record etc on them though, he just told me has FOUR multi room boxes / subs & two sky dishes now.

our Sky Multiroom service mirrors your main subscription. You can watch channels that are part of your subscription package, and record them if you have a Sky+ or Sky+HD box.
