Hi. I was wondering if you could help me. is there a way of connecting two dishes to my skybox?

You would be able to connect 2 dishes to your receiver if you purchased a Diseqc switch, they are only a few quid

Thanks. I'm new to this. I have read somewhere about using two lnb's will that be possible to have two on one dish? So that I could whatch uk and france channels off the one dish? Thanks again

There are brackets available that can take up to 4 LNB's, providing your dish is big enough.

I just have a new sky dish which has been installed recently. Would that be ok to pick up France channels too with the 2 lnb's ? Thanks

you will have to scan each sat seperatley then delete the channels you wont need because the skybox only hlds 5000 channels

When you say "France channels", do you mean 19.2e?

A Sky dish can just about get 19.2e & 28.2e, but it's a bit of a bodge!

Google:- sky dish gaffa tape. You will find a thread on Digital Spy telling you how to do it.

I have done that gaffa tape job that you suggested :). Got loads of channels now. Do you know if there is any channels on 19.2e that show 3pm epl games?

Haven't got a clue myself. You might get more response in the General Satellite section.

I have an Octagon Flex Feed twin LNB Octagon 0.1dB Flex Feed 4-15 Degree LNB (http://www.octagoneurope.co.uk/cart/index.php?l=product_detail&p=29) with this on a 60cm dish... I get 19.2 and 28 Astra using an Octagon diseq switch. My Dad has the same set up I fitted for him.... Now... this LNB is adjustable by 4 to 15 degrees...
The technique is to build the LNB and switch up off of the dish and then attach the right hand LNB to the bracket on the dish... this LNB will be the one you align for Astra 19.2.
Once you have aligned the dish to 19.2... and tuned in... you then move out the other LNB until you get full signals on Astra 28.... nip up the screws and check the signal again and do a scan.... if all is okay then fully tighten the 2nd LNB..... Job done.... One thing you will need to do is to associate LNB 1 with Astra 19 and LNB 2 with Astra 28 via the menu.... In Fact I have just watched Have I Got News For You on BBC1 HD and then switched over to Eurosport in Germany for the Boxing....
