Hi. This is my 1st post on this forum. I have just had Sky plus fitted and when through a quality scart the picture is great but on my other tv's the picture quality is'nt great. I have found that when the TV Aerial is out the picture is good. So i know know that the Booster on my TV Aerial is the culprit...Does anyone know of a filter or some other way i can block the liney picture that is omitted from my tv booster....

Thanks in advance....Mark.

Is the picture queality on all of the other channels on the other TVs bad, or is it just the Sky channel? You may simple need to change the output channel.

Thanks for the reply. Its just the Sky Channel on the other TV's thats bad. which i thought was the Booster.But you could be right about output. How do i do that.

You go into services, system setup, and press 01select, this will give you access to the installer menu. You can then change the rf output. It is set by default to channel 68, try right at the other end first, channel 21 is often clear.

rolfw. I have just tried that. When i put in 21 or any other number it just switches off the box and i have to press Sky button to continue. It just keeps going back to 32 which my box seems to be set at.

If you are watching it via the RF, then it will go off, you will need to retune the TV to the channel. So when you set the channel, go down two key presses and press select (even if you can't see the screen) and it will save it.
