Quick question re sky in another room

muffler

I just seen this and was thinking about getting it. Question is does it do what it says on the tin?

I had a look at a similar device in Argos but when you read the small print it says "Additional coaxial cable required to connect between digibox and second TV."

Thanks in advance

Yes that requires extra co-ax to connect tv's together and can be picked up for as little as .99p on e-bay. This type from argos do not need any connection between tv's.

But I doubt you will be able to watch different channels in different rooms.:(

No, they both only allow you change channels from different rooms, neither allow you to watch different channels in different rooms.

Get freesat for the extra room. Might as well not pay for it.

Thanks for all the replies folks.

Probably should have explained a little better. I presently have a co-ax cable running from downstairs to upstairs bedroom and Im only interested really in something that will allow me (and she who thinks she must be obeyed ) to change channels etc - basically a remote control upstairs instead of having to jump out of bed at midnight and change channels.

Search 'Sky Magic Eye' on e-bay. You can get them from .99p
Thats all you'll need if you already have co-ax installed. Instalation fully detailed here http://www.sky-remotes.com/setup-sky-magic-eye.shtml
