Thanx for the reply - I had hoped that they would cut me off straight away - like they can connect me straight away, I suppose thats one way they make their money!!

I have decided to get rid of Sky because I have got NTL and my own satellite receiver + dish. I phoned Sky to cancel and they said that I have to give one months notice. I have been with Sky for around 3 years. Can they do this as I own the sky receiver and dish and will not be using it?

Do you lose much strength thru' the window (double glazing)?

Has anyone managed to get a signal with the dish indoors. You'd think that in this day 'n' age someone would invent an 'indoor dish', anyway, back to hanging out of the window!!

Lidl's (swansea) only got the decoder, dish and meter thingy, they did'nt have the LNB or the wall bracket.

Thanks - you've saved me a couple of quid.

I Have bought the dish (80cm) and now I need the LNB. I have looked on ebay and some of them are from $ky - I want to use it for hotbird and/or sport RO - will the $ky lnb be OK or should I get one that Does'nt say $ky?

Thanks for the reply llandy- I've got $ky for the kids cartoons - looks like I'll have to hang out of my bedroom window and have a twiddle when I set it up.

Thanks, I've now got it in English. Since I want to put up the dish and never fiddle with it again, is hotbird (13) the best choice? (FTA Footy, cartoons and films) or is there a channel out there that has it all?

popped into Lidls to but some eggs and bought the receiver and dish - (will buy the lnb next week from maplin)I plugged it into the sky dish and the menu is all in german. . I've pressed the audio button but the answer aint there.How can I get the menu in English instead of German.
