    Im getting Sky digital installed soon, it will be going into 4 rooms in the house.

    Can i get a 3 LNB antenna, swap it with the one that comes on the dish, get a dreambox satellite receiver and diablo cam and use it in 1 room(i want to use the sky box and the Dreambox on the same tv - separately obviously) while still having the normal Sky service in the 4 rooms?

    Ill just say im not looking to try and interfere with the sky signal, service or box in any way, just wondering if i can make more use of the satellite dish.

    Thanks in advance,

    Gavin.

    If its an oval dish you will have to change the whole dish for a new one, if its a round dish you should be able to add an aditional lnb for the hotbird satellite
