    Hi guys,
    Have searched for the answer but haven't found a definitive one here.

    Parents recently got sky + installed. The installer put up a new dish and left the old one there and we still have the sky decoder. He took the old sky card though.

    So could anyone please tell me what we need to do to get free channels working on a different tv with old dish and sky box.

    Cheers....

    You need to run a good quality cable from either dish and connect it to the old sky box using F connectors

    My pleasure. Only other thing you need do is add channels manually using the info on the sticky thread
