SKY Italia channels via communal dish?

[DCOCKELL]

Hi,

I have been getting mixed answers to the following question and hope someone can help. I currently have Sky (uk) via a communal dish, and i am not allowed to place any external equipment up. I was wondering if it is possible to receive Sky Italia via the same dish as it is a large communal dish and just change the receiver and card?
I have been told by some that it is possible as i live in London and that the dish is large enough. Is this true?

Thanks

Possible only if;
Your communal shared dish is connected directly to each flat (very unlikely 1), in other words, if your building's communal system does not involve any multi-swichers board -it is possible to trace the cable and connect it directly to a second LNB attached to the same dish; if the dish is over 80cm in size
Or run a new cable on the side of the building to your flat and attach a new LNB to the existing dish (if the dish is over 80cm in size)
