| 768065 | 2009-04-24 10:48:00 | I have a basic Satellite dish set up, decoder, scart feed out to 3 x RCA inputs to my telly. All works fine. Question. Can I split the Sky signal anywhere after the decoder to go to another telly, say, in a bedroom, so that different channels can be watched at the same time as the "base" telly? In a previous house where I had two telly's with a splitter in the incoming aerial we could watch channels 1, 2 or 3 on one telly while watching Sky on the other telly. This set up was with the old fashioned aerial, not a satellite dish. I would be happy even with the previous capability. thank you |

| 768066 | 2009-04-24 10:56:00 | You can split the sky signal to another TV, but that TV will only be able to watch the channel the sky decoder is set on + any other channels it's tuned into. | davidmmac (4619) | ||

| 768068 | 2009-04-24 12:02:00 | If you have a UHF aerial connected, then yes, you can watch a different channel on the other TV :) | Zippity (58) | ||

| 768070 | 2009-04-25 03:42:00 | Our house is wired so it sends Sky to all TV jacks in the house, but it will only display the channel that the MySky Decoder is on at the time. To change Sky channels you have to go to the lounge that the decoder is in and change it. In the UK my Sister in law has a remote sender that works with Sky, You can change Sky channels from the TV that has the receiver with another remote without running downstairs to change it. Not sure you can get those here. |

| 768072 | 2009-04-25 04:37:00 | It could be something like that Speedy, it is a few years since I saw her setup. Last time I was there they had a huge fancy Bang-Olufsen system that seemed to do everything except pour the beer and wash the dishes. Since money is no object they life on a very different level to us. |

| 768073 | 2009-04-25 07:02:00 | You sure can. I install them all the time. We use Xantech or Speakercraft. Unlike the one in the DSE link, they only send I/R not AV signals. | pine-o-cleen (2955) | ||
