Getting rid of satalie dish

Hi, I'm after advice please,

 

Does anyone out there know if there is a way of using sky Q without the dish? 

 

I don't know if there is a streaming service that can link to the sky Q set and I don't want to go down the route of a Sky Glass tv if I can help it.

Sky Stream. It's not Sky Q but it is Sky TV without a dish.

Thank you for the reply.

 

I have seen pucks mentioned somewhere and didn't know if these could slot into the Q box instead of the leads and the Q service still work? I think I'll have to give sky a call?

Sky Stream and Sky Glass work independently. You can't have either one of them and Sky Q. The Sky Q box(es) would have to be returned to Sky.

Sky Q is a satellite television system: it requires a dish connection even if only its streaming functionality is being used.

Subscribing to either Sky Glass or Sky Stream will end your Sky Q subscription.

Re: Getting rid of satalie dish

I am at a bit of a loss to see why anyone would want Sky Q without a dish and Sky Stream. What would be the point of having Q?
