Sky dish only picking up few channels

    Just moved into an apartment which had a sky dish already installed.

    Hooked a free to air box up to dish & tv but it's only picking up some channels channel 4 +1 being 1 but channel 4 or any bbcs or ITVs. Even after doing scans.

    Then hooked up an enigma 2 box but that picks up nothing.

    The lnb is relatively new looking.

    Any pointers to getting all the fta channels?

    Just noticed it's a sky q lnb.

    I'll grab a normal one and swap it around.

    You should get a 6 output hybrid LNB. 4 are for standard receivers and 2 are for Sky Q or Sky HD boxes. By doing this you are future proofing your setup.

    All 6 outputs cab be used for SkyQ or legacy receivers, no specific outputs for either receiver type.

    Example, 3 SkyQ receivers connected to a single Hybrid LNB - https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=106369024#post106369024
