[QUOTE="gRoberts, post: 317541, member: 245792"] Hi all, When I moved into my house, I decided to split the TV Ariel into two rooms, so that we could have a good signal on the main two tv's in the house. Now we've had Sky installed and I originally wanted to do a DIY Multiroom using a Quad LNB and cloning the Sky Card but i've been advised that will not work. Anyway. Because of this limitation, I have opted to use the RF2 and plug the TV Ariel into the RF2 output and then tune in the second tv. It works :D Now we have bought a TV Link remote extender, and it worked for about 5 minutes. Then the red light went out. I wasn't able to get it back working until I went down stairs, plugged it into the RF2 socket and then went into the RF Output menu, as soon as I pressed select on the RF Output menu, the red light would appear, and stay until I remove the TV Link. I then plugged it back into the second TV and it worked, but only for 5 minutes and then it went off. I can plug it into the RF2 output and the red light will light up but when I plug it into the second TV it not longer works, not even for the 5 minutes. I've cut the end's off the coaxial and re-terminated them just to make sure there was nothing shorting etc but it has made no difference what so ever. Anyone got any idea's? I was thinking about cutting the coaxial and putting in a 9v feed but I won't want to break (1) my digibox and (2) anything that is connected to the coaxial. TIA [/QUOTE]
