i have 6 tv's and a slx8b aerial amp, the main aerial off the roof is going into my dvd recorder, then from my dvd recorder into my sky+ reciever then a lead from the rf1 out of sky+ reciever into the main tv aerial point, the rf2 out of the sky+ goes into the in uhf of the slx8b and all other tv's are fed out of the tv out's of the amp(this is wired as stated on the instruction manual of slx8b). The digital reception is perfect in all the rooms but i am only getting sky on the main tv i have re-tuned each tv both digital and analogue, can anyone please help so i can get sky on all tv's thanks

When viewing $ly on the TV, are you getting the signal via a scart lead or the TV aerial lead? If by the TV aerial lead, swap RF1 and RF2 about and see if it's still on the TV.

Does RF2 work connected to the main TV, instead of RF1?

Your getting offair in the rooms so RF loop-through is working and connections can be ruled out. Check the sky receiver RF output channel and DVD recorder, it maybe sat on top of an offair broadcast or the DVD RF output channel; failing that a possible modulator fault. As mentioned above, try RF1 for testing purposes and feed RF2 into the main TV and try. Worth also scanning analogue with the TV aerial connector out to rule out any offair crosstalk.

Good point about analogue and digital. So you're saying that NONE of the 6 TVs will tune in in their analogue state? Just to be certain go back and make each TV autotune in analogue mode.
