    I am completely new to sky box f3/f5 systems and just have a few questions if anyone is able to help, ive done as much of my own research as possible.

    I will soon be moving into a house that has a sky minidish on the side left by the prior owner but it is disconnected as the wire is just dangling down the side of the house. Can I just extend the wire and use this with a sky box f3/f5 or will I need a proper new installation?

    which is the better box, F3 or f5?

    thanks for reading

    PS: I would prefer someone to install for me in the Manchester area if anyone knows the direction to point me in.

    thanks

    just use the exiting dish and cables if they are in good order, if not run a new cable from the LNB on the dish to yer TV, I suggest you read the F3 tutorial on the site, it simple to follow

    F3 and F5 basically same box
