My System: Triax 1.1m and Orbital 80cm Motorised Dishes. Various fixed Dishes. Eclectic selection of Digital and Analogue Receivers. Complex switching and distribution that SWMBO cannot fathom. Nor me. | Basically, yes - but with severe restrictions. Common problem for Flat dwellers. I can't add much to what has already been discussed here Edit: When I say "Flat dwellers", I mean "those who live in Flats " .................. | ||

My System: 3m(sky),1.8m(astr/hotbird),1m (nilesat)1m(arabsat)diseqc 4,sky plus,humax freesat,visionet 8000s,technomate 5400 ci+ usb super. Satlook nit colour + Horizon hdsm. wii  | If the problem is you can only bring in one cable and you have spare outputs on the LNB(eg an octo output) you can use a stacker/destacker to give you 2 independent outputs from one cable. | ||

| The situation is a holiday home with just a single LNB feed. The guy used to take his old Ѕky box there and had no problems. But when he got Ѕky+ and took the Ѕky+ box there he said "it didn't work". I think you are all saying if he just wants to view programmes he should be ok. But on reflection it might be that he wanted the full range of Ѕky+ features. | ||
