thanks for the opinion sg8, i would think from the results i am getting you are right. do you know is there anywhere i can get a look at an online manual or instructions to see if i can get a definetive answer?[/quote

The loop out on boxes is only used if you want to connect to another
box or in your case send the signal to several other rooms.In most
cases you can receive some fta channels if you do an automatic scan
on the tvs in those rooms.Also you can tune in your tvs in the other
rooms to receive the channel that you are watching on the box from
your main room.If you change the channel on the box all the other
tvs will follow suit.The only way to have independant viewing of
sky movies,sports etc in each room is have a signal and a box in each
room.

phil43 hi and thanks for the opinion.
i am not sure that your right though unless i am doing something seriously wrong.
i plugged a standard coax cable into the tv out on the back of the eurovox directly into a 2nd tv sitting directly beside the original tv and eurovox and did an auto scan but could not get the 2nd tv to display the same picture as the 1st tv. maybe i screwed it up.
any further advice you have will be well recieved and again, thanks for the opinion.
