Any guidance much appreciated,
I have a sky octo lnb,but i only use 6 of the connecters.
is there any order in which they should be used or does it matter?
Thanks.

Doesn't matter what order you use them in,you have space to connect another 2 boxes to the lnb.:)

Apology in advance for going a bit off topic.

I am getting a new install of Sky next month, hoping to use an octo so I can add freesat/and use my old sky boxes in bedrooms. I have an octo from an old dish, but I believe (maybe wrongly) that Sky have changed their dish style, wondered if it will be any good or will I need a new one.

It looks like this one:

Thanks for any advice!

You can pick up the sky satellite with a frying pan as long as its pointed in the right direction.

Dish wont matter

So thats why Rupert Murdoch has started the Sky cookware division, installer asking me If I want a tefal hotspot pan as my dish or stainless steel!

Just wondered if my LNB will need an adaptor etc to fit the arm on new dishes.

The one you have in the pic is the new style mount
