Foxtel socket - what does it look like?
 
We have a dish on the roof of our new house, and the guy we bought from said someone here used to have Foxtel (old analogue version perhaps), but I can't see a socket outlet for it anywhere. What should I be looking for? Is it like a normal tv outlet, a phone outlet or something else? In the UK our NTL one was very distinctive but there is nothing like that. :)

Thanks. I don't think we have a socket like that so will have to pay the install fee I guess. :)

We're with Austar and it just looks like a normal tv aerial point but with a hexagonal screw in join instead of round push in. Wouldn't have thought Foxtel would have been completely different.

Ring Foxtel and they can tell you if you house has ever been fitted out by them, coiuld save some dollars of it was. My brother had both installed at various times and both sets look very similar.
