[QUOTE="amg054, post: 101736, member: 191601"] Thanks for the info Llew. Sorry if this is really obvious, but can you (or anyone else) tell me if I'm right in my understanding of the "TV/VCR to ANT-IN Loopthrough" ? (Identified as Co-Ax connections '3' and '6' in the manual ). Am I right in believing that; 1) The unit could be used solely for digital reception (DVB-S & T)- In this case, you could output the signal to the TV via SCART OR Co-Ax/RF, *without* also having to pass Terrestrial-analogue signals. ? In this case, you wouldn't need to patch the 'Loopthrough'. 2) Still using the unit solely for digital reception (DVB-S & T), you may not wish to ouput on an RF signals to any other units. In this case you'd only use SCART to pass signals to VCR & TV. 3) Using the unit for DVB-S, DVB-T & analogue reception, you may not be able to use SCART, so can 'loopthrough' both the DVB-S & DVB-Tchannels *plus* standard analogue TV signals. Again, sorry if this is a really stupid question, but I'd be really grateful if anyone can confirm/correct me on this. Many thanks, amg054 [/QUOTE]
