Default Couple of Questions please.

A couple of quick question please,

1)I have sky how could add extra box?
a) would I need to change the LNB to one with 2 output
or
b)could just split the feed into two and feed it two boxes

2)I have got sky Amtrasd box could I rearrange the channel order?

3)I Have sky mini dish if I buy a adaptor from ebay I could change the lnb to the standard LNB would I gain anything if I change the LNB to monobloc-Please note I do not want to lose the current channels I am getting.

Many thanks -sorry If these question have been answered before

1. Yes, you will need a twin or quad LNB
2. No, you're stuck with the SKY epg, though you can use favorites.
3. The best LNB for a SKY dish is a SKY LNB, because the dish is a different shape. A zone 1 minidish is probably too small for a monoblock,
a zone 2 might be OK.
