    Ahhh okay so I'll need a dish and an aerial for both then , I presume there isn't an all in one package , just a matter of googling to find a supplier.

    Might also depend if you want to record a sat program and view saorview,i found 1 cable was not enough as always wanted 1 more,then more.

    So what would I need if I wanted to record a Freesat show and watch a soarview show at the same time

    You would need an aerial and a satellite dish and use a diplexer to combine both signals down the same cable and then use a diplexer socket or another diplexer to split them back out again at the TV

    I would also ask might you upgrade to a better box in the future like more tuners or adding to a different room.
    Quad lnb = 4 sat feeds as a sky+hd box uses twin feed as an example.
    Thinking ahead and getting things done right the first time so not needing installer out again.

    In what way is it out of whack?

    Don't use HDHomerun, but could it be that the timezone is set to the wrong region or someting like that?
