Hi
Please help My Sky Remote on my Kitchen TV has just stopped working sky (it was working fine until today) but it does still work the TV volume. I have checked all connections and RF2 is "on" also the red light is on the magic eye and the new booster box in the loft is all working and green lighted It is a brand new LG TV and I have reset the remote with the nearest code number 1293 but still no joy would appreciate any ideas

JB38 Thanks for your reply I did as you said and tried both magic eyes that I own, directly into RF2 of my digibox and both worked sky on my living room TV. I do have a REV8 sky remote control for the kitchen TV by the way. I just don't know what else to try I am considering buying a SWRT 750 (TV Out Plate) and installing this in the kitchen and running a piece of digital coax into the new TV. I have a new puppy and it looks like she has cut through the coax outer sheath By the way I have also rebuilt my sky in the services>0> 0> 1>select still cant get the remote to work in the kitchen.

Hi JB38
Just finished carrying out the things you have suggested we even set up a new aerial to test in the loft retested both magic eyes and both worked. We are getting a good strong picture and red light on the magic eye but unable to change channels or work sky in any way. The eye was working fine the other day. We think the return to the box in the loft is where the fault lies as the kitchen sky remote and the magic eyes work the living room TV we covered the sky box thoroughly so no signal could get through as you suggested. I have cut the aerial back from where the puppy cut into the outer sheath so the aerial cable from the booster box is uncut. I also fitted a brand new Antiference SW710UV as described in the schematic drawing of the booster box setup. No joy there either I guess it could be the cable length as you say but it was working fine the other day. Don't know where else to turn.

The model is "ANTIFERENCE 4 WAY SKY MAGIC EYE REMOTE LINK DIGITAL TV AMPLIFIER BOOSTER A240D" and yes the RF2 output from the sky digibox goes straight into the booster box and out on O/L number 1 to the kitchen TV what I cant get is that it was working when we first set it up and then suddenly stopped. Oh well thanks for your patience, I will try out testing the magic eye straight off the RF2 in cable from the digibox before it goes into the booster box and then try it connected straight into the O/L number 1 of 4 from the booster box and test if no joy I will test each individual link/connection all over again and let you know how it goes. once again thanks for your help
