    When I was building mine I put four runs of CT100 from the living room to the attic. If I had my time again I'd have put five as I am short one. Two for Sky+, one for FTV box and one for terrestrial. I'd like to have one for distributing the Sky+ and FTV signal throughout the house.

    I also have two CT100 runs from family room to attic and the main bedroom to the attic.

    All of the other rooms have a single run.

    Why only single runs to the rooms?? A bit of a doh question but do you intend to run a single run to the attic, and then how is it split through out the house? Have you a splitter box for the sky??


    cheers

    I can daisy chain the Sky boxes in the living room together (having changed the RF frequency output) and send the signal up to the attic using RF out 2 on the second box in the chain. Once that signal is in the attic I can connect up a six way distribution thingy (in the attic) and then have the 8 terrestrials, Sky+ and Sky FTV on any TV in any room.

    The family room has a second run as I may want to move the FTV box in there at some stage.
