Whats a digital LNB?

Just found one on front garden..

(chinny)

 

does your sky still work mate..

the LNB, as far as I know, is the liitle reciever bit that the dish bounces your sky into in order for your Sky tv to work,...... has it maybe fallen off or maybe a neighbours

 

It's the bit on the end of a Satellite dish.

 

We had sky plus fitted today so maybe its to do with that? Hope it wasn't meant to fall off.

 

That explains it

Did you have Sky before?

If so they fit a new LNB onto your existing dish, that'll be the old one

 

It'll be your old one then as Sky plus needs 2 feeds. nt

 

And they usually fit one with 4 on

So you can have multiroom as well

RE: That explains it

Yeah we did. Cheers for that, thought I was gonna' get bombed or something seens how there was a van parked outside too.



While we're talking about sky.. I was going to have the old box upstairs and pay the extra ten pound a month, but then I thought about getting a new sky plus box for my bedroom. How much a month is another sky plus box and how much is it to buy/install?

TIA.

 

Don't know about how much to buy/install

But it'll still be just an extra tenner fo the multiroom.

 

RE: Don't know about how much to buy/install

HD is about 15/20 a month so I thought sky plus might be a bit more too.

 

So, rather than buying multiroom you could just run another cable

to the old sky box for nowt?

 

RE: So, rather than buying multiroom you could just run another cable

Good point. I'll get my ladders.

No

Because you need the card

 

RE: Don't know about how much to buy/install

Sky+ isn't any extra if you have either Sports or Movies, and they are getting rid of that restriction as well.

 

RE: No

bum!
