[QUOTE="rolfw, post: 813007, member: 175057"] Welcome to the forum Andy. The Sky minidish is not ideal for multisat reception, although it is possible, Hotbird is 15 degrees offset, so you would find that signal strength would be poor and regularly drop out with rain. I regularly fit second minidishes for Hotbird and they work well for single satellite reception, you will however require a second receiver for the sat, as the Sky digibox does not have DiSEqC capability, nor is it designed for adding other satellite channel lists. If you wish to subscribe to outside of UK satellite providers, you will need to make sure that the receiver you buy is suitable for their subscription cards. [/QUOTE]
