[QUOTE="BGonaSTICK, post: 55249, member: 176912"] The part of the dish where the cable goes in is called the 'LNB' and if it's a few years old, it will probably need replacing with one suitable for digital. Pretty cheap - £25 or so. Known as a 'Universal' LNB. Get the cable changed as well while you're at it. Then you will need to look at a new receiver. Anything with 'FTA' on it will be cheaper than 'non-fta', and still able to do what you want it to do. You can buy and fit that yourself, it's easy. You can certainly get the results you want for a lot less than you are being quoted. You could also have your dish upgraded to a larger/newer one (with 2 'LNB's) and get BOTH those satellites on it without moving it, or any more messing about... Come back if you have any more questions. :) [/QUOTE]
