sky+ throughout house

Please can someone confirm or tell me what to do below?

I've had sky+ installed in the front room, but we also have 4 other TVs.

Planning to run coax cables to the other TVs, from a tvlink compatible
amplifier,
eg CPC.co.uk
http://custom1.farnell.com/cpc/produ...ct%5Fid=264153

and get tv link kits on each TV.

But do I also need to get special SKY+ remotes?- or can i just use a
standard sky remote at each location?

cheers

Yes. That or replacement universal remotes.

I don't believe you can use the tv link on more than one extra tv? You need
to bypass the amplifier with a special kit to allow the 9v current to get to
the link in the other room.
You could save a lot of money by taking the one remote around the house with
you as you will have the same program on every TV. anyway.

Remember you will only get mono sound by this method in the other rooms.

i have sky+ on 5 tvs all with tv links thro an amp works a treat and feeds
my pc capture card, for got which amp it was now and its under floor so cant
look, think it was by global

Some amps do this themselves.
