I just want to query whether or not an extra coax feed can be taken from a
spare point on a quad sky+ LNB to allow reception of Freesat on a Panasonic Viera Freesat HD television. Is this correct? Is there any situation where this wouldn't be possible? Will any of the current types of Sky+ Quad LNBs do the job, or are some not compatible with Freesat? Thanks a lot |

Hi Rich
It worked for me no probs. If you have a spare port on your quad LNB all you have to do is plug it in connect up and tune in using the panys auto tune search thingy i cant rember what it is called but it is very easy to follow the on screen menu. all the best Jimbo "Rich" wrote in message ...

Thanks a lot It should work fine, adding a 2nt dish could yield you some good HD stations for free(for now). ;P Sky is moving to a system where the LNB is going to contain a stacking unit and once that happens then you wont be able to simply tap off of the LNB like now. |
