Getting Sky Q, will my old box still work?

Seve OB

I'm getting Sky Q installed, never had it before.

I haven't had anything other than free tv for a fair few years. I have old sky plus box for satellite stations and aerial for saoirview

my question is, will I be able to move my current free setup to the back room and stick Sky Q in the front room

as in, i understand they might change the LNB on my Sky dish. will the older box work with the new LNB. Lad in Sky Shop Blanch said it would, but I'm not so sure from what I read on web

I suppose I should also tell installer that I want to keep old LNB (which I actually bought myself, ie it wasn't a sky one) as i will probably keep sub for a year

Ask the installer to install a hybrid LNB. just moved myself and have this set up. Dont think they will be bothered about taking away old LNB/dish and will leave it for you to do with as you please.
