Ahh a think I get it,cause the rf2 is sending a analogue signal it won't pass threw my combiner because it would only accept a signal ie:direct from a lmb on the dish??is this correct,so basically I just need to run another cable(which I should have just done :p)

Can you be a little clearer with regard to how you have this set up please, as it's confusing.

So you have an aerial amplifier behind the set?
You are trying to send the signal to another set other than the one the Sky digibox is connected to?

A diagram would be great.

ok, here goes. one tv in kitchen fed by digi aerial via a 'Remote Link' (A260D) booster in loft.
in lounge tv fed by sat dish&skybox also in loft. I have put the lounge tv on digi aerial, cut from sky dish,
try to link the kitchen tv on both digital and skybox. both these boxes next to eachother in loft.
used a Philex splitter(?) , one side enter digi aerial, next dish input, one out put to tv. it works perfect, except the satellite part is not sharp and the magic eye does not work...hope this helps

I understand what you are trying to achieve, but the layout is still confusing.

Is the Sky digibox in the loft?

If so, then put aerial feed into aerial in on Digibox, then from rf2, link into the ir pass amplifier, job done.

No Pete, the Antiference is an ir pass amp, but I need to know exactly what you have connected and how. Can you not do a diagram?
