Any recommendations in county Durham (east Durham) for someone to install an extra aerial feed from a Sky dish to an upstairs bedroom as I previously had a 2nd Sky box there, but now have a Humax Foxsat box and want 2 aerial feeds, as per my Sky+ box downstairs, so I can watch and record or record 2 programmes at the same time.

Also any idea on what I should be looking to pay?

Thanks

One of these on the end of the dish (assuming you currently only have a twin..)

A suitable length of this...

4 of these...

Chuck in a few clips, a drill, a pair of ladders and you're sorted.
