@nigea99 

In the Republic of Ireland

For customers who requested a Hybrid LB when ordering Sky Q 

When a Sky engineer done the install and Sky provided the Hybrid they used the 6 Way Hybrid LNB

 

That 4 way hybrid lnb was not used by Sky engineers in Republic of Ireland

@Paul+Boland 

An Irish engineer named Denil developed the first `baffle` fishway, in 1908 in  the Republic of Ireland. Baffle fishways consist of a straight sloping channel fitted with specific geometrically shaped deflectors
which cause helical currents to be developed thus dissipating the energy in the flow and reducing
velocities in a relatively large main through channel. The energy is very effectively and continuously
dissipated along the entire length of the pass. Fish can then swim straight up them provided that their
swimming capabilityis adequate

Good to see that you now accept the existence of different Hybrid LNB'S 👍🏼

@Doc5907 

What are you on about

Your post has nothing to do with Sky and should be deleted

 

You are just trolling that is not allowed

@Paul+Boland If you requested an Hybrid LNB you get what you asked for but if you specifically asked for a ELO10 then you will see it's manufactured by Sky and not the generic one you posted

Sky's smart Hybrid LNB EL010 @bob1234 is correct maybe @Godfrey  can explain why it's known as the smart LNB 

I'm sure whatever both of them tell you they are right.

@best+of+the+best 

Sky discontinued the ELO10 Smart LNB a good few years ago

 

My photo was just to show what a 6 way Hybrid LNB looked like

They are made by a few companies

Quite a few EL010 on houses in the Republic of Ireland, I would think, given that it was the only hybrid available for the first 4 years or so.
