    Hi

    I was having the Channel5 HD issue so i managed to get a loan of a samsung sky HD box which channel5 HD worked perfectly on. Now however i am getting interferenc on the bedroom tvs, a kinda wobble effect. I never had this on the old sky HD box so i know its not the channel i am using. Just goolging it someone said use a variable aerial attentuator as the rf2 output from the samsung box is boosted too much. Does this make sense? And where do you place the attentuator, on the receiving tv or coming out of the sky hd box?

    thanks

    The RF2 from a sky box is not boosted too much, where did you get this information?

    I have never had any problems with RF signals from a Samsung box, what else have you going through the sky box? A terrestrial aerial etc? If you have then it would be worth your while changing the frequency despite you saying this isnt your problem.

    Do this by pressing services, 0,0 1 select

    The attenuator would be placed on the incoming signal going into the sky box.

    Thanks. I saw it on avforums. I changed the frequency alright but no luck. The problem is i dont get the issue with a thomson box but i get it with a samsung, but i dont get 5HD with the thomson!!!
