Satellite Dish

[Suetheramble]

I have (again) been approached by a company wishing to update a sat. dish to run a sky plus box seving 20 flats.
They installed the original system some 5 years ago and now advise me a 2nd cable is now needed to upgrade the head end(power) The company state a second cable is required for the sky plus box to work to its full capabilities.
Whats this all about in simple terms please?

Sue,if you only have 1 Sky lead to your digibox that is for Sky ordinary box, you need 2 feeds to Sky+ & Sky+HD. The 2nd lead is to enable Sky+ to record programmes to the box hard drive whilst you are watching another prog.Ron.
