    RF out...

    I have a dual tuner with each having a RF output, what is it I can do with them? Possibly connect them to my tv digital inputs? Curiosity has got the better of me hence the topic.

    Help/guidance much appreciated.

    It is a loop out, for looping to another tuner.

    It is not a modulator. You cannot connect to TV and duplicate what is on the receiver.

    Hmm that's a shame. I was thinking plug it to the tv digital input so the missus could use YpuView, she's always banging on about catch up tv!

    Just connect a wire from aerial connection directly to TV then. No need to involve the receiver.

    I don't have an aerial wire? Only VM connection but I have ran spare coax to my Tv's which is why I thought rf might work...

    It has 2 IF Satellite inputs on the tv, does that make a difference?

    Think of the RF Out/Loop Out port as an extender or splitter. It splits/extends whatever signal comes in.

    So,
    if you have connected a Cable signal in, it sends out the same Cable signal for you to connect to another Cable decoder/tuner.
    if you have connected an aerial signal in, it sends out the same aerial signal for you to connect to another Terrestrial decoder/tuner/TV.
