unsuscribing Sky Q - can I use their dish?

[JuliusH]

I have ended my suscripition with sky but I do not have any antenna. Can I use the sky satelite? Such cable from sky has two sub-cables Sat 1 and Sat 2. How do I connect one of them to my TV antenna in?

A satellite dish can't be used in the Antenna  socket on a TV. You will need a Freesat box if you want to continue receiving TV via the dish, or get an aerial installed.

And note to be compatible with a dish previously used for Sky Q it needs to be a 'Freesat 4K' branded box rather than earlier HD Freesat hardware.

Okey-dokey. I'll think about it. Thank you very much.
