As above, will an unused sky dish on the side of my house work with freesat, and also with the HD freesat, or will i need to upgrade the dish/cables?

It's the same satellite so yes all you need to do is plug your bbc freesat kit into the dish
![]() Some installers are installing zone 2 (60cm) dishes for bbc freesat but a zone 1 will do fine ![]() |
