Moving House/Getting Sly

[platty14]

At the moment i have cable and dbox2. I'm moving house but cannot get cable. I'm am going to get sly. Once sly have installed there dish and box if i buy a dreambox 500s or another will i be able to use the sly dish and then image a dreambox to work with this dish or am i better buying a dish and forgetting about sly?

Thanks in advance

the ONLY way to get sky via satellite is with a paid for subscription

you can use the sky dish along with a dreambox to view the sky channels, but if youre paying for sky and this is the only viewing youre interested in then you may as well stick with the sky issued digibox. if youre going to upgrade to a motorised dish then the paid for sky card will work in a dreambox, and you could also connect other dreamboxes in your home together and work them all off the one sky card (if you put a quad LNB on the sky dish and run a cable from the dish to each reciever as well)

I was more thinking getting foreign channels etc from the dreambox but with skys dish. Not sky channels from dreambox. This is mainly so i can watch live football 3pm sat.


I will be paying sky for their channels


would i need another dish so i can view foreign channels?

youd need a new dish, ideally a motorised one to get the best choice
