My sky dish is over 20 years old. Could I possibly need a new one to rectify this problem?&nbsp;</P> Sat, 15 Feb 2025 14:40:00 GMT https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Sky/New-Sky-dish/m-p/4912068#M156388 Nicola12349 2025-02-15T14:40:00Z https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Sky/New-Sky-dish/m-p/4912070#M156389 <P><a href="https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4331556">@Nicola12349</a>&nbsp;</P> <P>If you have Sky+ (where you've posted) Sky no longer support the set up so any new dish will need sourcing and fitted by a local independent satellite company at your own expense.&nbsp;</P> Sat, 15 Feb 2025 14:46:03 GMT https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Sky/New-Sky-dish/m-p/4912070#M156389 Daniel0210 2025-02-15T14:46:03Z https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Sky/New-Sky-dish/m-p/4912072#M156390 <P>The dish is probably ok, though it might need re-aligning. The LNB (where the cables connect) is likely to need replacing if it's 20 or so years old. It's conceivable, but less likely that the cables would need replacing.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>A local satellite engineer would do the work for you, but Sky won't unless you have Sky Protect.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>Alternatively, now might be a good time to upgrade to Sky Q. Any dish/cabling issues will be sorted out at no additional cost to you as part of the Sky Q installation.</P> Sat, 15 Feb 2025 14:48:12 GMT https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Sky/New-Sky-dish/m-p/4912072#M156390 Mark39 2025-02-15T14:48:12Z
