From sky to freesat connection problems...

[stephenmx50]

Hi, wondering if someone can help me please. I have canceled my sky contract that was running 4 tv's around my house and purchased a freesat box. I have screwed on the main connections from the dish to my freesat box and it working fine on my lounge tv. However before I had 2 Coaxil wires running from both the RF out ports on the back of the sky + box that linked up the other tv,s, now there is nowhere to put these two RF out wires in the freesat box!! Can anyone advise if it's possible to connect these to the freesat box. Thanks in advance.....

Sorry if this has been asked before!

Think you need a distribution unit of some sorts, google Satcure, loads of information on their site and should help you out

As long as your Freesat box has at least one aerial output then an aerial distribution amp will do just fine.

If you would like the same sort of control (with magic eyes) that you had with Sky then that can be achieved to with the right bits of kit and a little knowhow

Freesat boxes don't have a built-in RF modulator so you would need to add an external one. If you don't need to control it from another room then an RF modulator alone will do (with appropriate connectors).

If you need remote control as well then you could use a wireless system such as a "Powermid" or you could buy the full kit like this:
