    yes you can but the dish is a small dish and will not pick up 1w were the most football is you will probley be able to pick up 13e and 19e which are strong signals.I would strongly recomend getting a 80cm dish with a motor coupled with your egale and a bit of Knollage the world will be your oster

            You could get a motor from Eb*y and try your sky dish first.
            Then if you need a dish it's easy to replace.
            The motors are easy to set up.
            I always start at 1 west with motor set to just of centre.
            Should be able to get help here any way.

            I have an eagle box dk 1.1 on. Excellent.

                        Let my remind every one what we had 18months ago..tv cabo, d+, tps, premiere, digitv, showtime, Art 7w and the other small packages..its amazing that we lost 5 of those 6 packages in the short time and we are losing digitv soon!
