If you have Sky Multi-room this will feed a separate SKY signal from
your LNB on your dish to a second SKY box if you have the basic this
will not cost you anything you still need a card inserted in the front
to make this work. I think it costs £5 extra for more channels.
So if you have SKY + you will have 3 coaxial cables coming out of your
LNB. ( 2 for the SKY + and 1 for the Multiroom )
To ger the signal for free the easy way is to connect a coaxial cable
from the RF2 output on the back of the SKY ot SKY+ box into another TV
and use a
SKY
Magic Eye these cost about £5 and have a range of about 20 meters.
You can use a coaxial splitter to feed two TV but you will loose more
signal the more you connect.
You will need to turn this function on using the hidden menu to allow
you to use the Sky Remote control then LED on the unit will show you
that there is a signal.
Press <SERVICES> <4> <0> <1> <SELECT> and
goto the RF2 output to turn the signal on you might find that this
signal is already turned ON for you.
Note: If you are using a multiplex faceplate unit this signal will not
work as it relies on continuity of the coaxial cable with a 12V DC
signal being sent out of the back of the SKY Box.
For all setups changing you Box model or adding an extra box SKY must to
this for you by having your phone line connected so they can reprogram
your Smart Card.
