Bob if your loft has a 13amp power socket you could fit a 4 way amp in the loft and do away with the twists, if this is possable fit a 6 way just in case. If you carnt get power in the loft you will need a multi output masthead and power unit you can do this yourself it isnt hard but if you have problems you will need to call out an local aerial rigger and he will do this for you. Hope this helps

Steve keep your head up i went to a house today they used to save sky but have now gone in to bt vision they lived in a half million pound house the only problem was the sky box was powering a compact amp, this is not the first time this has happend and wont be the last. As the ression rearly starts to bite more people might ditch sky and just have freeview we can all live in hope.

I dont think it is for our country i remember nokia digital boxs offering 5v outputs for there home market in norway i think. All the mastheads i have seen in uk work on 12v with different milli amps. The only other masthead that is different is fed by skys rf2.
