[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 784167, member: 323322"] Tricky. Monoblocks are designed to work most efficiently with 80cm dishes, but are generally ok for slightly smaller or larger. Indeed, I have one on an old Sky "Analogue" dish. But there is another issue as the current Sky dishes are wider than they are high - the opposite of a standard dish. Add into the mix the fact that a Monoblock LNB will have a Feedhorn designed to match a normal dish and you have the potential for a difficult installation. I have read of people succeeding, but not totally ie on all frequencies. So my advice would be to replace the Sky dish with a proper one - provided the existing dish serves only you and not other flats too. [/QUOTE]
