[QUOTE="cia.kelly, post: 712545, member: 252775"] HI All I live sin Stockholm, Sweden and have recently moved house. I want to install a Sat system so I can get UK TV. On the new house the previuos owners have installed a large TV aerial and a Sat dish on the roof. One of the previous owners is Russian and the Sat dish was to get Russian TV. Yesterday I climbed up into the attic to have a look at the cabling, etc and I found something peculiar. There are two seperate cables coming in from the roof (I am assuming that it is one cable for the Sat Dish and one cable for the TV antennae). Each cable has a two way splitter (A & B). The first cable goes into the "IN" conx of a two way splitter (A). Then, the first "OUT" cable from that splitter (A) runs to a bedroom but the second "OUT" cable runs into the "OUT" conx of a two way splitter (B) on the other cable. The other splitters (B) secound "OUT" cable then runs down to the living room.
