    how can i set a Blade Combo to 3 tv's

    Hello just wondering if i can set a Blade Combo 7000 up to work on 3 tv's without scart or HDMI leads
    the set up at the moment is using a sly box through a splitter box to 3 tv's using the sly ariel output - but the Blade dose not have one is there any way that i can do it with the blades video out or composit video out

    thanks in advance

      as mentioned above , use a scart to rf modulator and use the same method as the sly box

        If U don't want to buy an RF modulator, which would be ur best option. Use a VCR player. Connect the blade to VCR by scart and use the RF on the VCR. On the VCR make sure ur channel is the AV channel so it outputs ur blade

          Hello i bought a RF modulator for my mate but he said that he did not need it as he was told by someone that a SLY box will do the same job so i said OK i did not know that, i will set it up for you but the SLY box he has - has only 1 scart connection so it must be a output to a TV and would not work, so i told him that probably a old grey SLY box might work as it has 2 scart leads but they have -TV scart & Video scart - so i presume that the TV one is a output and the Video is a input so that should work

          just realised that the Video Scart will be a OUTPUT so that will not work looks like he is getting the RF Modulator

          the only reason i want this to work for my friend is because he has a club and is paying ?500 a month for the full sly sports and music package but with the footy season finishing he will downgraid to the basic sky and probably still pay ?200 a month for sly sports 1 but will save ?300 a month when no one comes in to watch footy and might still be semie legal

              a sky box has its own internal rd modulator and sends over the rf2 connection on a channel between 21 and 69 (of your own choosing) so yes a sky box can do this trick

              but what your friend was not told is the fact that the sky box can only do this trick from its own internal sat tuner , not an external source plugged into any scart socket

              so yes it has a tv scart output and a vcr or dvd recorder scart outout, but as you say, no input

              so the external rf modulator will do the trick , as would connection to the vcr, and also the video sender idea too

              so no the sky box wont work, unless you sub to sky and use its own internal systems for distribution of the channels it decodes

                i remembered that i had a old JVC Stereo HI-FI vidio up in the loft that i bought in 1986 but when i checked it, it did not have any scart connectors
