mr bethell: If the "other TV" has analogue RF input, then yes. If you want to use a remote, use the RF2 output of the Sky box and a "Sky Magic Eye".

Hi,
My TV in the lounge has been connected to the TV in the bedroom (also the one in the kitchen) and I am now trying to install an eye on the bedroom one. Have connected as per the diagram, the red light does not come on and when I tried to tune the bedroom TV into the Sky box's RF channel I have now completely lost all my channels, oh dear, I will not be popular. My question is: what have I done? And why does the eye not work? There is a cable that runs from the loft into the back of the sky box, plus the main aerial from the loft into the sky box. There is also another lead which comes from the loft into the back of the box, but as it gets to the sky box it splits into two and there are then two separate things plugged in - I presume this is because there are two TVs connected to the SKY box? Can anything be done? Or was this a complete waste of time and money!
