Analog dish query

TigerTim

Hello all,

First posting on this forum. I've an Analog dish & LNB on the back of my house & used to receive Eurosport free on it until 28th April last on 19.2e. Planning to take down the dish at the weekend but before I do I was wondering is there any other satellites out there I can receive with this dish/LNB/box setup ot is it just scrap value now.

Thanks,

T.

If you connect it to a digital receiver you will have access to 100's of FTA channels.

no, all analogue now gone but why not get a cheap universal lnb and a cheap sat box eg an sd sky box and pick up all the free digital channels.

There's no such thing as an 'analog dish'. It's just a dish and works equally well for analog or digital channels.

If the dish is very, very old, then the model of LNBF (feedhorn) might have a limited range, in which case you'd need to replace it with a Universal LNBF. If you post the model number or frequency range that's printed on the feedhorn, it should be possible to determine whether you need to change it or not.
