Can I add a Free to Air Satellite receiver to my existing Sky TV Setup

Mark asks,

Hi I've recently had sky installed and I want to add FTA to another room. Can I connect to the sky dish (it has two spare connection points on the LNB) with a HD satellite receiver and Satellite installation kit. Would I require anything else?

Our answer;

the answer to this is yes it is very very easy to add on Free to air receiver

Facts to consider

  • Both Sky and Free to Air channels come from the same satellite (Astra 2, 28 degrees East)
  • the equipment is totally interchangeable in terms of satellite dishes, LNBs
  • as you own the satellite dish, receiver & LNB, you can upgrade as you like
  • a single SKY+ HD install will have 2 ports of the Quad LNB being free to add extra boxes

What will you need to buy?

How Do install ?

Will it interfere or reduce signal quality to my sky+ receiver?

  • It should work fine and have no impact
