    They say the one made by Philips is a good one. I take it you want it for a $ky mini dish. also you can look here.

    chernobyl Here
    all that i could see was the quad lnb for the Sky Minidish thats not what im looking for. A quattro lnb is different to a quad lnb
    a quad lnb allows you connect 4 digiboxs directly to the lnb, a quattro lnb allows you to split the low vert, low horz, high vert and the high horz then attach these to a multi-switch likeone of the Spaun switches with your normal terrestrial signal, feed these to a diplexer which seperates the sat signal and the terrestrial signal and feeds your digibox and tv.

    I've never heard of a quattro LNB for a Sky Minidish. I'm not sure if one exists. You'd be better getting a proper "standard" 60cm or 80cm sat dish and getting a standard quattro LNB.

    thats just what i was wondering that but ive heard of communal installations of sky digital where they would use a multi-switch but wheather they use a mini-dish or a normal one i dont know would be a surprise if sky didnt use their own equip, ????
