Gary: And should it be what Dave Lindsay has provided the link for then this is not powerful enough, as nearer the 10db mark is more appropriate.
Of course thats if your Eagle device is found NOT to to faulty!

Gary: It seems a bit of a coincidence that a different device from a different manufacturer would have the same model number. Perhaps it is the same device (the electronics inside) but in a different box.
In any case, try turning off the amplifier having checked to see what the strength is on the Freeview TV that is working. See if having the amp turned off reduces the strength. If it doesn't, then it certainly points to it being defective.
The other thing to try is connecting the incoming lead from the aerial onto the outgoing feed to the room with the TV in. This may require an adaptor if the two connectors are the same gender.

Bob does the receiver say "HD Ready" or does it say it has an HD TUNER?

Gary: The fact of your boxes having been working three weeks ago but not now even although a TV with built in Freeview still does is not exactly that terribly unusual, because excluding the possibility of a fault in the aerial feeds to the boxes concerned, all this indicates is that the TV is fitted with a more sensitive tuner than that used in the boxes hence the TV can operate with a lower signal level, and so to reiterate on what I already said in my initial reply made on the 12th @ 9.34pm, a 34% signal level is way too low for satisfactory reception, and so in order to solve your problem you have to pinpoint where it is in the first place, this done by carrying out the check on the booster / splitter also mentioned in my original reply, plus the more detailed test as described on my subsequent posting on 13th @ 9.15pm, and I just noticed as also mentioned by Dave Lindsay today, because unless you do this the Eagle device cannot be eliminated from being the cause of the problem.

i can receive Sky News and CNN channels, but all other channels e.g. BB1, CNBC etc, the message is "there is a technical fault etc." or no satellite signal is being received, please try later. I have trie all three of your suggested solutions and still have the same problem. Please help.

SCART sockets are an international standard so should all be exactly the same.
