Sky in all rooms

    I'm moving to a new house soon and, thanks to advice I received here, I'm planning to get Sky Digital. I'd like to ask for more help.

    My new house will be pre-wired with a TV point in each room. While I realise that I can only watch one channel at a time, how do I send the signal from the Sky box to all rooms?

    If the dish was connected to the house cable system and then to the Sky box, I could only have Sky in the room that the decoder was. Is it possible to set up a dish - decoder - house cable system link? This could then send a decoded signal around the house as opposed to the encoded one straight from the dish.

    It is yeh, thats the way mines set up, once your decoder has an RF out you can send it back into the house cable system and watch that 1 channel in all rooms, you can then get yourself a remote extender and change the channels from whatever room your in too. If your decoder doesn't have an RF out you can do it through a video recorder (as in my case) which is scarted into your decoder.

    You might want to look at the Digisender from AISecurity. It looks the business. According to one newsgroup post it should be in the Autumn Argos catalogue.

    I'm doing the same with two Global amps.
    Any advice on using the TV points to feed
    radio from the digibox to a mini or midi system. Will the signal be powerful enough? Anybody with advice on which mini or midi systems would work well here? Are there any smaller radios that have a coaxial input? I know the sound will be mono but it's mainly speech radio I'm interested in. Thanks
