Hi Guys
I am an enthusiastic novice, wanting to install some stuff in m house and I wonder if anyone can advise.
I moved in to a brand new chalet bungalow in Poole Dorset about 8 months ago and got Sky to provide a new dish etc for standard sky.
Was going to get a high gain ariel and go for freeview with a set top box in each bedroom, but found out this morning that this is not an option in Poole.
As far as I can see, I can buy a dish and install it on a bracket extension to my sky dish.
From there i can easily 2 (or if just as simple 3) cables to bedrooms. I understand i would then place a receiver in each room and connect to the tv in each room.
Have a few basic questions....
Does this sound sensible?
Is there any way i can wireless from dish (or close to it) to each receiver so that the system is as flexible as possible?
Can I connect 3 cables to a signle dish or is there a better way....splitters?
Will placing 2 dishes within a foot or so cause any problems?
Any guidance for cost conscious reliable kit?
Any other help or advice would be much appreciated.
Happy new year, a great site you have here.
Thanks
Brian
