Aerial and satellite coax dilema

There's a few solutions depending on the flexibility you need.

If you can leave the satellite receiver in one place and just need to move the TV around then a Loftbox would do the job. You could position it next to the satellite receiver for example.

If you want something more generic that will allow positioning of all the equipment anywhere, including the satellite receiver or even the potential of multiple satellite receivers, then a multiswitch is the thing to go for.

e.g.

Change the wife!

I had thought about that but so far haven't met a woman who doesn't like to change the furniture about in the living room ;o)

Thanks Andy for the links. I'm trying to get my head around what cables would go where and struggling just now.

Well there is always that option.

When my wife was 36 I suggested trading her in for a couple of 18 year olds. For some reason she wasn't enthusiastic.

I would start with the sketch of the Loftbox and adapt it to the physical layout you have. The connections have to remain the same but not the physical locations of where things go. Frfom that, you should be able to work out whether the physical locations are acceptable. If you only want to account for a TV, then it's not too bad. If you want to feed outputs from the satellite receiver or video recorders to the bedrooms, it gets a bit more complicated. Are you restricted to having the TV, video and satellite receiver in the same physical place or could you put the video and satellite receiver in a fixed place and just move the TV around? Keep in mind that there are remote control extension solutions that allow you to point the remote at the TV and operate the satellite receiver located in a different place.
