Saorview & Sky Configuration Question

    Hi ,

    I have a sky subscription where I have 2 coax cables ran from dish to HD Box in sitting room.
    I have a 3rd cable in sitting room ran from sky box rf port back to an amplifier splitter in attic , from there each room takes a feed off this and using a magic eye can change the sky channel but same channel has to be watched in each room.

    My question is I have got a new TV for kitchen which is saorview approved ,but the coax port on TV is taken up with the feed from the applifer in attic which is feeding sky to the kitchen TV. Is there anyway I can rearrange this and be able to use the second coax cable feed in kitchen for saorview so that the sitting room can be watching sky and in kitchen can watch saorview at same time .its just I don’t have a second coax port on kitchen tv to connect the coax cable from saorview aerial.

    Sorry this is so long a description just not sure how to get this working.
    if anyone has any ideas on how to configure this that would be great

    Thanks

    Run the cable from the aerial into the back of the Sky box and then the Saorview channels will be piped around the house along with the Sky RF channel.

    Yes, the Saorview channels (TV's will need to be Saorview compatible) AND the Sky RF channel will be piped around the house and available to each TV.
