Kev, as it happens I'll have a standard Sky box available soon as I'm getting rid of my multi room box in the kitchen but it won't be for a couple of weeks yet. :)

if you've never had one in your caravan before, do yourself a favour and get a sat finder...worth it's weight in gold, and to help along (you'll be surprised how many satelites there are out there ) have your dish just off 90 degrees tilting slightly forward, and you'll find the sky satelitte at about 125 degree's..

Good luck, its fiddly to set up but worth the wait:thumb:

to fine tune I put the reciever on signal test and move slightly to get the quality up..

Sorry to Hijack this thread for a moment, but how do I go about getting multiroom without going through SKY to do it for me. Basically they have fooked me about more than you can believe, thus I would be interested to know if its possible ;)

Thanks
Rob

Um the cables can be run for a multi room no problems, but the issue is boxes are provided obviously by sky so thats the only thing I can't do . Thing is you would need to call sky out for the box anyway as they issue the cards as well..the only other option is to run the cable to a standard set top box as a free view box ...

Thanks for the info, I did set it up using a compass and found it straight away but any hints tips are useful .
