If you want to use both Freesat and Sky receivers from the same dish, it must be fitted with a quad LNB, which can provide four outputs. Each Freesat or Sky receiver needs one output and the Sky+ and the forthcoming Freesat PVR receivers need two. If you have a Sky+ or Sky Multiroom system your dish will have a quad LNB. 9.
