Distribution amplifier / Magic eye / Saorview setup

The Ayatolla

Howdy,

I want to setup a system to distribute Saorview & a magic eye signal via various Coax around the house.

I believe this is what I need below, but open to any advice.

Am I right in saying:
- I need one coax from a Saorview aerial into the "VHF" slot on the amplifier.
- I need one coax from the Sky RF OUT port to the "UFC" slot on the amplifier.
- Then I just need one coax from each of the four available outputs to each TV.

Or
- Should I just use a basic F-joiner to join up the Sky magic eye and Aerial coax cables and then have one cable from this go into the "UHF" slot of the distribution amplifier?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks!

Saorview is UHF, same as the output from the Sky box, terrestrial TV in the VHF band ended in 2012.

Does your Sky box have an RF/aerial IN socket or does it require an I/O link, either option will combine the aerial feed with the Sky box channel for distribution via a UHF amplifier.

You will require a distribution amp compatible with the magic aye that allows a return signal to the Sky box, the T series distribution amps for example - http://www.tvlink.co.uk/t-series-amplifiers.htm

Thanks!
Yep I have the Sky I/O so will just connect the Saorview Aerial to this.

Would this do the trick for the distribution?

Yes according to the specs.
