Another question, I have an old sky dish on my wall, can I buy a freesat box and connect to the cable ? will I need to realign dish ?
 
Depends how old ..............

If it was last used for Analogue, then it will need moving from 19.2E to 28.2E and would need a new Universal LNB.

If it was last used for Digital, then it can be used straightaway with Freesat (as long as it isn't misaligned and the cable and LNB are not goosed!).
 
If its an oval Sky dish then just buy the Freesat box and plug n play.


If its a very old one from analogue days then it'll need realigning from 19E to 28E and possibly need a new lnb on it as well.

EDIT - drat beaten to it :D
 
:o Doesn't happen too often !! :-worship
