I wanted to hook up my spare box to my dish so I could watch free to air
channels in my room. Apart from being funny with heights, I am not sure I have the confidence to do this myself without knocking my dish out of alignment or screwing something up. I am looking for a competent person locally if they want to earn a bit of spare cash to do this for me. Technically it should be a very quick job - 15 mins maybe and I am willing to pay up to £30 to have it done. I have a ladder and tools and will get the cables, so its just a case of someone being able to do it for me. There is even a hole already drilled in the bedroom wall for another cable so it should be a **** easy job. I would go to a local engineer but I think they are too pricey and I would rather the cash go to someone who needs it. If anyone is interested, I am in the High Wycombe area of South Bucks. |

You can buy a simple gadget in any Argos store. It's called tvLINK.It's simple to install,even a child could do it ;). It will cost about £25-£30. This will allow you to watch Sky channels in another room . Hope this helps Theone |

If not, then you can just run a piece of coax (pref Sat grade) from the RF1 or RF2 out on the existing digibox to your TV in your room and optionaly fit a TV Link which will allow you to control the Digibox remotely. If however you want the ability to watch different channels, then as you suggest you need another box (and a replacement LNB with one or more spare outputs if you haven't already got this) If you are capable of doing a bit of DIY and have the necessary tools and ladders, why not have a go yourself? If you get it wrong you can always call the pro's in at that point. If you were to loose the alignment slightly, it's not difficult to get it back by looking at the signal stength and quality on the digibox via a portable TV. |
