[QUOTE="spiney, post: 144703, member: 192438"] sounds like an iffy way of doing it! An alternative would be to to keep the receiver in one place, then use modulated UHF rf out with the Sky "eye link" system, along with a "link plus" and dc power injection. Grandata sell the whole package at around £22 (excluding SLX eye links at £5 each, and postage), for non-Sky equipment, at: [URL="http://www.grandata.co.uk"]www.grandata.co.uk[/URL] (go "catalogue", go "audio video accessories"). If that's unacceptable, and for some reason it's better to move the receiver around, then I'd have thought a sat "line amp" should cope with any attenuation problems due to sat i.f. signal splitting. In theory, all splitter ports should be always be properly terminated, but in practice you're probably still ok. As long as it's just your dish, and you're not doing it to a sat distribution system shared with somebody else! [/QUOTE]
