You don't need a telephone line to connect a Sky box if you want to view channels, you only need the dish connected.

Lol, whilst your here, may not be appropriate thread but, If i bought a Starview 4 instead would i get the same channels as starview 3.. Im based in Newcastle and keep hearing things like only getting 93 channels..

Yes you would and the signal level can contribute to channel loss.
