New sky installation, Which dish to use?

saphire

I currently use a Lidl free to air box along with the original Lidl 80cm dish that I got a couple of years ago. However I'm getting sky installed next week and am unsure on whether I should ditch my existing dish and take the sky supplied one.
My reason for doing so is that the original Lidl dish and bracket aren't very strong/rigid. Would I suffer any loss in the quality of reception by using the 60cm sky dish. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.

i'd say change to the sky dish seeing as how they will more than likely charge you for it anyway....the sky dish is usually perfectly adequate for astra 28.2.

Also you'll then have a spare dish which you can use to pick up channels from other satellites if you like.

You could also add a quad lnb and continue using the lidl box in another room.

Thanks lads, I'll take ye're advice on both counts. I'm getting sky + so i'll use their dish and one of the spare outputs on the lnb for the Lidl box.
