[QUOTE="BGonaSTICK, post: 74658, member: 176912"] Welcome m8. You don't say much about the dish, so in all probability it's a S*Y minidish, pointed at 28.2 degrees east. Assuming it's not damaged, or mal-alligned and the coax is sound, you can just trim the end of the coax like you would with a TV coax, and fit a screw-on F-connector, available at any DIY shop. Then just get hold of an old digibox, buy a £20 Freesat card from S*Y (1 off payment) and off you go. Similar package to Freeview. Check out :- _http://www.freesatfromsky.com/?pID=6 for more details. For BBC channels and a few others, you don't even need a card, so you can test it first. :) STICK [/QUOTE]
