Old Sky dish and FTV

batman2000

Hi, I have an old Sky dish (by old I mean it was used when Sky was analogue about 10 yrs ago). As far as I know, it is aligned to the same satellite as the current Sky. As I recently got Sky+, I have a spare digibox. Question being, can I connect up this old satellite to the spare digibox and get FTV channels. Also do I have to change the LNB?



Sky and Callback: As an add-on question. I have heard of people been charged the full amounts IF Sky boxes (used for multi-room) don't do a callback. It there a way to 'force' your digibox to do a callback to ensure the phone line is working ok?

If the lnb is universal and working ok you do not have to change it although if you have sky + there may be a spare port on the the sky lnb. that you can connect to. You can test the phone line by using "system test" on the digibox menu.

that dish may even be pointing back at 19.2 East.
