Can I use my Sky dish to feed my Sky+ and also pick up FreeSat for other TV?

Can I use my Sky dish to feed my Sky+ and separately also pick up FreeSat for other TVs in the house.

Yes you can use your existing skydish to still get your normal sky tv, and also the freesat channels, including h.d. without moving your dish. You would need to put a twin lnb on your dish and run a second cable so you can either watch 2 at once, or watch one and record another at the same time. I went on Freesatbox.net the bloke on there was more than helpfull and i now have free channels from all over europe - no card - no money - no Murdoch - now thats what i like ! Not sure if i am allowed to tell you in this forum but it is here at http://freesatbox.net/

Yes you can. Freesat and Sky use the same group of satellite.

When Sky install Sky+ they usually install a Quad LNB on the dish but only use two of the ports for Sky+.

So, assuming you have no other satellite receivers, you can use those two ports to drive two Freesat receivers. Just run some coax from each to where you want the Freesat boxes.
