How to view on a second TV?

[Adam_UK]

Hi All

I will be grateful if someone can help. I have a satellie and a receiver in one room and I can watch all FTA channles fine. I have a TV in another room. Is it possible to watch the Sat channels on the second TV by taking a coax cable from the receiver and use a splitter on the second TV so that the coax cable and the antenna cable for the second TV can use the antenna port? On the back of the receiver should I use RFout or Loop Out? I had ago few weeks ago but once I use the splitter on the second TV the TV can only see the Satellite channels and not the free channels coming from the antenna.

Thanks

Thanks billy2, but I was looking for a cheap solution. I can get an indentical receiver to the one I have with the same price and attach it to the second TV. Is that possible? Do I need to daisy chain the seocnd recieve to the first one?

how long is the run from 1 tv to the other m8 and if its not to long is wires a problem

[billy2]

ok m8 if you can pick up indentical receiver you can try this


dual lnb, Consumer Electronics, LNBs, Dishes items at low prices on eBay.co.uk

if the run is not to far away get a gold r/f lead plug the 3 conections in the back of the stb then the other end's in to the tv that will give you good results with a lead for about 15 mtrs / 20mtrs at a push

Hi
It is about 8 meters, I already have cabled between TV1 and TV2 and I was relaying on being able to watch sat on TV2 using one receiver attched to TV1 but once I use the splitter on TV2 the channels coming from the antenna disappers. Is it TV limitations? my TV is LG 5700?

Sorry martin-f I am not sure what to do. I have a coax cable running between TV1 & 2 and it in plugged in any end on the TV and receiver
Where do I put the end of the cable on the recieve and on the TV? Do I need an adaptor on any end on the cable? Bear in mind the antenna port on the second TV is already in use and TV2 didn't like a splitter.

Thanks

m8 has your satellite receiver has a coaxial output on it ??? if so run the coaxial cable from out in box 1 to lnb in on box 2

[Adam_UK]

I don't have a receiver on the second TV, I am trying to watch on TV2 but using the receiver attached to TV1.

[billy2]

what box do you have ???
