What box are you using and if they had sky q before you probably need to change the lnb.

Check with neighbours if they are using Sky Q services

Why not as if they are using Sky Q the whole place could be and would mean you box not work.

If they have freesat boxes then it could be used.

Forgot one thing if they are immigrants as they could be using a different sat ? = Moved dish to another sat.

do you have your own dish, or is it a comunial one. i have seen sometimes more than one dish on a apartment block?

It’s a sky dish, my previous flat had communal dish and was perfect. I think it might be the lnb on the dish to be replaced.

There's a dozen different models, which one do you have?
Is there an aerial cable?
Do you have a terrestrial tuner?
Do you have internets?

Is there an aerial cable?
You can get freeview.
Is there broadband?
You can get iptv.

I have iptv but I also want the freesat channels as im so used to this setup. Might have to get an independent satellite engineer.

All you have to do is answer the questions you have been asked then --- Hey Presto you will have the answer to your original queery.

Most probably a wideband LNB for Sky Q on dish. Take a clear picture of it and upload it and someone will confirm for you. You should be able to change it yourself.

Wideband l.n.b has one cable for the vertical side of the transponder one cable for the Horizatal side of the transponder As suggested
not big job changing your l.n.b to universial

Soo what to do? Not worth changing the LNB?

Visiblewave 4-Output Universal Quad LNB - Screwfix

So those cables are going into your flat and not somewhere else. Should the wall plate have more than one feed?.
Any aerials poking out that you can see as to where they point to.
Might need to check how close to a transmitter you are with your Post Code?
