Will I ever need a dish again?
I am having some external work done to my house and would like to remove two old sat dishes and all the connect exterior cables . One of these is the dish from my last sky installation about 7 yeara ago. Since then I have had BT and now Sky Straam. Is there any reason why I might want to leave this Sky dish up?

Contingency, perhaps, if your tv has a compatible dish connection. Otherwise, if you're happy with Sky Stream, probably not.

Thanks. I can't say I am totally happy with sky stream (for some reason there seems to be a 'technical fault' preventing me from watching catch up sport when I really want to) but I don't think it is bad enough for me to want to revert to dish.

Thinking in advance, then TV by satellite will probably become extinct during the 2030's anyway, so do you really need it now as a back up in case the broadband drops? Do you have a TV with a satellite tuner built in? Will your property look more pleasing without the dish and wiring? Only you can make that decision.
