I'm in the process of switching from a Legacy setup to UniCable, however I'm finding it a lot of trouble finding a satellite installer who knows anything about UniCable and are saying to me they "can switch the LNB, but if it doesn't work they still want to get fully paid". Therefore I a wondering if someone can confirm that switching from a "Legacy" setup to UniCable is simply a matter of the following:

  • Having a UniCable LNB
  • Having a compatible UniCable splitter
  • Having a satellite receiver with FBC tuners to fully take advantage of UniCable


If it is simply a matter of the above I'm tempted to just replace the LNB myself unless anyone can foresee potential problems.
