Connecting Sat box to two tv's

mp3ireland2

Hi,
I have a technisat sat box (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Technisat-HDFS-Freesat-HD-Receiver/dp/B002DPVMXO/ref=wl_it_dp_o?ie=UTF8&coliid=I7TER9HEUIC2F&colid=2XVFHGQPRDKPG)

It is connect to the TV in my sitting room via HDMI cable. I want to connect it to an old analogue tv in the next room (crt, has scart connection) I was wondering where to get long rgb cables (not sure if this is correct word but the yellow, white and red cables) so that I could connect the receiver to this tv. I would need possibly about 12m or so of cable I'm guessing. Would i need higher quality cable to get signal to travel this distacne? Where would I get cable this long? I assume adding cable junctions (which I have seen when on ebay trying to find long calbe) will reduce quality of signal?

Will signal travel this far in these cables or should I just go for a wireless option? I was hoping to use a cheaper option than wireless if i could just plug in cables directly?

Thanks!

I think you need a wireless TV signal sender... check this link... click on the video tab and you can hear more about it.

You could also use an RF modulator. This sends your signal over a normal tv cable and has the ability for you to use your remote control at the other end as well

Cheers lads I'll think about doing something like this, these options are both a bit of an investment though.... I was hoping to just get a cable and connect it directly for under €10 but doesn't seem like it's possible! Not sure for the amount the tv would be watched that it's worthy of this investment! I also have another old FTA sat box that I could just connect up to it.... as this is an old CRT tv so not HD or anything....

This is a basic modulator for cheap on ebay.

This is a cheaper wireless AV sender on eBay too, no support though... might take 3-4 weeks to delivery as well...

Cheers for the cheaper versions lads!

Just be careful of the wireless senders using the 2.4 GHz...

They are subject to interference from cordless dect phones,,and WiFi...

Wireless senders are always best with the 5.8 GHz..

This 5.8Ghz is about 50% extra than the 2.4Ghz, it's from the same place as the link above. As SexyGuy says you can get interference from microwaves and cordless phones with 2.4Ghz.
