Question
We live in a flat with a communal satellite dish. Will a Freesat box work if i plug it straight in to the terminal.
There is no switch that needs to be turned on it. Should work straight away?

Both Freesat and Sky Digital should work with a communal dish, assuming that the satellite TV point has been wired up correctly to the satellite dish.
In most cases, it will simply work – there’s no switch needed. It does depend how the building owner / landlord has set things up. If you find that the point doesn’t work – talk to the person or company responsible for the communal dish.
