[QUOTE="BLUEPLATINUM, post: 534952, member: 176530"] Once the system is correctly installed your Pace box will work fine. I would suggest you buy a freesat from sky card (assuming you have a UK address) to go with it so that you can receive Sky3, Channel 4 (on EPG) and the "five" family. I would agree with what the others have said. There is [B]no way[/B] you should have to choose the polarity. The dish should have a QUATRO LNB supplying both horizontal and vertical signals on both the high and low bands ie. four combinations: V-High V-Low H-High H-Low this LNB should feed a multi-switch. Each satellite receiver is connected to one output on the multiswitch. When you change channels the receiver sends the necessary signals to the multiswitch to tell it to switch the correct LNB output to your connection. You need to challenge your installer on this and if you don't get satisfactory answers get another professional in. [/QUOTE]
