@Harley_rice

Your post is a little confusing but suffice to say a satellite dish is required for Sky Q and Sky+. They are delivered via the dish.

Hi @Harley_rice

Unfortunately SKY Q (& SKY HD) need a dish.

The only time you don't need one specifically on your apartment/house is if there is a Dish feeding a communal system (such as an apartment block or for some housing schemes)

So there is no possible way off me getting SKY Q is there a indoor satellite dish that I can open a window and let it get the channels?

no - Satellite signals are very weak & you need direct line of site of the Satellites

If they do not allow dishes on the property it might be worth enquiring whether they have provided a communal system for residents

@Harley_rice

It will not work without a proper Sky supplied satellite dish or a communal dish supplied through your landlord or management company.

Sorry a communal system is not device you can get from stores or ebay - it is a significant cost of cabling and electronics - normally used for apartment blocks providing feeds to each apartment, but occasionally for some modern housing estates

@Harley_rice You seem to be intent on ignoring the advice provided. You need a dish located outside the property, it will not & can not work indoors.

@Harley_rice

'Portable' satellite television dishes do exist for situations such as mobile homes, but are essentially entirely impractical for domestic use, particularly indoors where the likelihood is there's no line-of-sight to the broadcast satellite orbital location anyway.

Any 'aerial' you see advertised is for digital terrestrial television ('Freeview') broadcasting from a local mast and absolutely cannot be used to receive Sky.
