My System: Home-Amstrad Sky Digi-box on 60cm dish. Bar - Pace Sky English Digi-box and Grundig Sky Eire Digi-box linked to a 2.4m Channel master dish with a single dual output LNB. Digibox for ART network on 90cm dish. Digibox for Digitalalb subscription. Di |
Do sky HD boxes work without buying the sky HD sub as was thinking of getting one just for BBC/ITV etc as here in Tenerife you need the big dish to receive them on a normal box and obviously the HD channels you can get on a smaller dish. Or is there any other HD box that could get me these channels without a sub. Thanks. | ||

| So, what size dish do you have, and what do you think you can install without the neighbours complaining ? | ||

My System: Various digiboxes, broken Nokia 9800S, numerous analogue boxes. My lovely little lappy, HP Omnibook 6100 | If you can't get 2D then it won't matter which HD box you have as they both rely on the same signal. | ||
