how do i wire our satellite signal around the house easily? I have a signal booster in the loft already?

Answer 1

What are you trying to accomplish? Do you want to make it so you can move the receiver and television to any room or so you can hook up more televisions? The difference is critical to the proper answer. WIthout that infomation, you will only get generic answers, not what you really need to know.


You need a separate receiver for each television. You also have a different piece on the dish, depending on how many televisions you will have. Since you have to rent these from the satellite company, few people actually have that many of them. This is very different than cable television.

There is an excellent chance the signal booster will not work on satellite. Satellite signals are MUCH broader band than regular television cable so the booster must be made specifically to work with that.

If all you want to do is view and control your satellite channels around the house, the easiest way is using digi sender units which can be bought from Argos at around £80. You plug the sender unit into the output from the satellite box, attach the receiver to another TV via scart (more receiver units can be added) and hey presto, Satellite channels in another room minus the hastle of running loads of cables.
The receiver comes with a "magic eye" which, when placed in front of your satellite box means you can change channels from the other room. Unfortunately, you can only watch the same channel in all rooms, if you want to watch different channels you will need to contact your provider because you need a different head unit on the satellite dish, plus another decoder box.
