[QUOTE="Tiredeyes, post: 136788, member: 196173"] lol, spiney, sorry m8. I just addressed it that way to find out the best method. At the moment i have one cable from rf1 go straight up side of house into loft. from the loft i have just joined this 1 cable to 3 others, using a soldering iron and tape ;-) (you can tell im a sparky huh!) those 3 others are my daughters b'room, my study and front room. the sky+ and cable box are plugged into tv using scart. (living room) so by your point of no4 [color=black]4) To additionally control non-sky devices (ie, other stuff besides Sky+ box), a link plus "inserts" into the rf2 cable coming out of Sky box, ie, very short cable from rf2 to link plus, then original cable plugs into that! Then, you put the 2 tiny infra red emitters over the "sensor windows" of extra devices you want to remote control (these are tiny, and don't cover the whole window, so you can still point the remote straight at the device, as well as controlling indirectly from other rooms!).[/color] I can buy a link plus and control my cable box in living room from my bedroom, using rf2 - wicked. i am going to do that. but i guess because i have an eye already in my bedroom, do i need to buy just the tvlink to put into rf2, or do i need another "eye" in my bedroom? sorry for confusing you. so can I take the cable from the back of sky+ rf1 and put this cable into my slx4b, to amplify the signal to rest of houes?
