how can I get Sky to boost to all tv points of my house?

Hi all,

I have tv points in all rooms in my house, 5 rooms in total that are all linked to a booster in the loft that is linked to the aerial so I get free view in all rooms.
I have sky in the lounge and want to know if I plug a lead from the rf2 out on my sky box to an additional booster box and then to the tv point in my lounge will it boost it too all the other tv points in my house?

Cheers
Adam

As boosters are voltage fed you might have problems using the two PSU's on the same circuit.

ok adamf this is what i would do.

1)run ur tv A/E to your sky box A/E input
2)rf2 back up to the loft at the end off this cable u will have tv A/E pics plus a sky channel
3) replace ur booster with say Global F140 4 Way F Type Amplifier this would then allow u to also control the sky box from any location
