Hi I need to buy a new Freesat HD box in Dublin today - can anybody recommend a shop and what box to get?

Many thanks in advance!

id highly doubt you'll get a proper freesat HD box in Dublin. The North is your best bet, some cracking deals at Argos UK.

you might get a sat4free box in power city if they are open

Thanks guys, got a receiver in power city.also got a philex quad lnb for sky dish (www.philex.com/parts/show/28225R).I'm installing the lot for my parents in the next day or so but i'm worried now that i might have trouble fitting the new lnb given that my parents dish is 10 years old or more.any advice appreciated!

Should be ok as its a plastic part and not as prone to rust. Bring a small screwdriver and a sharp knife with you as well as 10mm and 13mm spanners in case dish needs a slight tweak. WD40 to loosen the nuts is also handy in the unlikely event you have to realign dish

Thanks again Tony! Final question, do you think the lnb i got(link above) will fit onto my parents 10 year old dish? Just worried that it wont. I just bought it because it said it was for a sky dish but I only realised afterwards that there are different sky dishes,like Mark 1,2,3 and so on.

If its a sky minidish it will fit
