Dear All,
I know that many comments here may have already covered this but I would like a specific answer please, all.

I live in a block of flats and have only 1 feed. I was told that an F splitter could be used so that i can feed both receivers on my Sky+ HD box. I have done this using a Konig purchased on amazon. I fitted it and turned off the single feed mode. I have approx 50% signal strength on each receiver and approx 80-90% quality.

It appears that i can record one channel while watching another but I can no longer see ITV 1, 2, 3 or 4.

What has happened? What could be the cause? The Sky adviser suggested over the phone that this was a dish problem....
Thanks in advance...

Hi jb38
I think you are right... I only have horizontal channels as E4, More4 and others are missing also.
I guess that there is no way round this other than an expensive stacker/destacker.
Is that correct?
Why is it that Sky+ boxes need more than one feed whereas Humax boxes (and maybe others) only need one feed and you can watch one channel and record TWO others...?
Must be a Sky thing...
