Can anyone help with my aerial/sky dish dilemma?
Post Body

So this is partly a request for confirmation, and partly a question. I'll begin at the beginning.

Up until 2020 I had Sky Q. But life happened and I was forced to part ways with Sky. Ever since then the aerial that leads into my front room has not provided me with any signal whatsoever. So using my Google skills I managed to work out that this was because the low-noise block downconverter (LNB) had been replaced with a specific one for Sky Q. One that apparently does not work with anything else.

I managed fine without broadcast TV for over a year, but recently upgraded my wi-fi package, and that came with Netgem TV. Now I stupidly assumed that this would work with my current cables, but unfortunately that's not the case.

So taking to Google once again I found that I could buy a compatible LNB and attach it to my dish. The one needed would be a universal LNB, or at least I think it is. Which leads me to my question. Is it the Universal one I need, and is it pretty easy to replace?

Reddit users, and Sky engineers of the UK help me, you're my only hope.
