Although the likelihood is that you have a quad lnb on your dish if you had sky hd installed. So you could run an additional cable from your dish to the freesat box.
As above, you need an independent feed from lnb to receiver. However, you can also setup your Sky+ into single feed mode and use one of the cables to the Freesat receiver. You will lose some function on the Sky+ receiver though.ie record one channel and watch another.
so if i was to use one of the sky feeds to my freesat box the sky hd box would still work and i'd still be able to use catchup?
nothing to lose i'll give it a try
thanks for all the advice!
