Two Magic Eyes in Apartment - Help please?! Hello,
Hoping someone can help me. I live in an apartment block. In my front room I have Sky + HD which is connected to my main television by HDMI. In my bedroom (two rooms away from the front room) there is a face plate, in that is a coax cable which has a magic eye connected to it. This allows me to view the television from the Sky box in the front room. A mate of mine has recently moved in, his room is next to the front room and his room is close to the Sky box should we need to drill a hole in the wall, this would be possible. There is no face plate or antenna points in his room.
Please can someone advise what the best method would be to allow him to watch the television from the Sky box from the front room, in his bedroom too? I don't know if you can have two magic eyes connected to a Sky Box or if there is alternative methods?
I am not a techno whiz when it comes to Sky boxes so any help or pointing in the direction of what I need to buy would be a great help!
Thanks again!

Re: Two Magic Eyes in Apartment - Help please?!
You do know that no matter how many Magic eyes' you have, all have to tune to the same program. Unless you and your mate have the same tastes and always want to watch the same program, you might not be mates for long.

Nothing wrong technically with what you want to do.
A multi room sub at £10.25 a month might be a better solution.
