    i have three sky digiboxes ( one subscription and 2 freesat). What is the recommended or best RF channel numbers to have each digibox tuned to, to reduce interference with each other and the other terrestrial channels.

    Should the RF output power be off or on in the digboxes

    Depends where in the country you are (what other UHF channels are in use)

    Make a list of all local channels in use and avoid anything 0, 1, 5 or 9 channels away

    i.e. if Channel 50 is in use then dont use channels 41 45 49 50 51 55 or 59

    Should work fine on Ch 21.

    Power should be on if you're using a "magie eye", otherwise off.

    Might cause problems with BBC on Ch 22

    Of course since BBC is available via the satellite box anyway maybe it doesnt matter that much
