Hello all, please help me with the following issue:

I have a satellite dish with a cable (see picture below) and an old receiver.

I have decided to buy a new receiver, and I have come to conclusion after the purchase that it does not have LNB in port that was in my old reveiver as seen in the picture.

Instead, I have such ports as RF IN, RF OUT, COAXIAL, HDMI, TV SCART and audio r/l (see image below)

My existing cable does not fit to any of the ports.
I want to buy converter or something that would enable my LNB in cable to be plugged in via any of the ports available on my new receiver. Please help me with that.

Welcome to the Forum :)

I suspect you might have inadvertently bought a Digital Terrestrial TV Receiver (DVB T) , not a Satellite Receiver (DVB S).

Can you post pics of the front panel, please ..... ?

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

Ah, sadly I was correct.

That's a Digital Terrestrial HD box.

You need to return it and get a Satellite HD box (DVB S2)

Ah fine. From the word 'Terra' I assume it is a ground based receiver, one to fit with a TV aerial, not a dish.

@Juliata As another option is buying terrestrial antenna and watch terrestrial channels from Lattelecom, they have lots of channels to sell you.
