Recommend silent combo box with pass through

    Hi

    I'm on the lookout for a cheap satellite/DTV combo box for a bedroom.
    Have one in there already and there are two problems with it.
    The first is that it has a fan, so doesn't run completely silently. The second is that I need the RF to pass through the box as I'm running SKY through the house using magic eyes.
    When the box is off, the signal doesn't get through so I'm looking for a passive box.
    The final requirement is a SCART socket.

    Any recommendations?

    The Ferguson Ariva 153 OR 253 tick those boxes.

    The Ariva 153 is a great receiver to be honest, and I would recommend buying from Tony at satellite.ie He know these boxes inside out and he's a regular contributor to boards.ie especially to people looking for help with those Ferguson receivers
