Do sky HD boxes work without buying the sky HD sub as was thinking of getting one just for BBC/ITV etc as here in Tenerife you need the big dish to receive them on a normal box and obviously the HD channels you can get on a smaller dish.
Or is there any other HD box that could get me these channels without a sub.
Thanks.
 
Have you tried a FreeSatHD box on those channels that interest you ?
 
Thanks for reply,
Just looked on site and all freesat for bbc etc in hd are now on astra 2d so no good to me as when i last looked you could pick up with a smaller dish.
 
So, what size dish do you have, and what do you think you can install without the neighbours complaining ?
 
If you can't get 2D then it won't matter which HD box you have as they both rely on the same signal.
