Thea: N14 indicates that you can be located at around 14 miles or so away from Crystal Palace, and which at present anyway somewhat eliminates the possibility of your signal being too strong.
I will say though that "if" the method you used to split the signal was not done by using a powered splitter then that will result in signal being weaker to both devices, the way to test being to by pass the splitter and have the aerial feeding directly into the device that shows no signal, this followed by carrying out an auto-tune to see what comes up.
If this worked then using a two way powered splitter would most likely cure the problem presently experienced, but its best that you don't make any radical changes at present as come April 18th when Crystal Palace switched to high power there should be a massive difference in your signal strength anyway making this type of splitter unnecessary.
