Didn't work for me when I moved houses in Wellington as the dish wasn't aligned correctly and the cable was too crap (apparently) for HDi. I would try it and see how it goes as they charged me for coming out....
If the dish has been upgraded in the past couple of years to the dual throat one then for now no issues, however if its still got an old 11300LNB on it then it really needs changing.
Ultimately even the dual throat LNB will need upgrading to a quad output one with two down leads. If you call sky to do a move then they will bill you, if you just plug it in and it works then no cost. When you do eventually need the LNB upgraded to the quad output then they will pay.
As Cyril explains, you can move it, if it works. Otherwise you'll have to pay sky $70 for a relocation fee.
Also, if you move it yourself, then have problems within the next year, they will make you pay a one-off $70 fee for sending out a sky tech to your house.
Hi, currently it means nothing, latter in the year/early next if will mean that when Sky start using Optus D3 at 156E for extra capacity your HDi will see both D1 and D3 with no limitations. So nothing to get that excited about.
