Below are all of deborah's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.jb38: my sky box is in the lounge and the freeview boxes are in kitchen and bedroom and linked direct to the tvs there. the sky box links to kitchen via a magic eye and is also wired up to the bedroom (but dont ask me how!). there are no sky boxes linked to the freeview machines directly. there is also no tv/dvb button for my bedroom upstairs, only in the kitchen. postcode is ha88tb. i am so confused!! would an aeriel splitter help to allow me to put tv ariel into tv and also freeview boxes?? thank you

I have just bought my freeview boxes and am having similar problems to all the above. I have a magic eye in one room for sky and upstairs it is connected to a room via cabling (but i havent got a clue how!!). Since i have connected up today i can only get analogue tv by taking the ariel in the relevant room, out of the freeview box and back into the tv. Surely there is a way to switch back and forth between sky and freeview without unplugging the ariel??? I have tried retuning but no sky channel was found. Sky can not help and uk digitial helpline simply told me to buy an ariel splitter?! I have read all your info but i am more confused about all this RF cabling. I dont want to change anything about my setup at the main sky box as there are too many leads and i would not know where to start!!! Also the tv upstairs is very old and i dont think has an analogue/digital switch button. Please help (if this makes any sense!!!) I live in HA8 8 thank you
