    What are you using to split the cable between the two other TV's?

    You can't have one cable going to two tv's without a splitter. Can you describe in detail your layout?

    The magic eye will only work with with RF2 it won't work with RF1 it doesn't have a power supply.

    I've not tried it that way, sure try it and see what happens.

    You'd need a splitter with power-pass in both directions. Otherwise, a specifically-made distribution amp for Sky-eyes, like a Global F120 for example.
