Analogue on Phillips DTR220/05
Help Please:
I can not pick up Analogue signals on DTR although will tune for stations such as ITV. All other TVs from same aerial in house can as can a different TV in same socket.) I am mainly trying to input sky into TV in a different room (have changed engineers setting for RF Output to channel 55 and power on) but will not pick up on DTR. TV has no tuner or RF sockets so using box as tuner. |

So your 2nd TV only has a scart connection and this is being fed by digibox also in the
2nd location? Does the digibox pass the Sky RF signal through to the TV? Have you activated the 2nd Sky output RF socket? Are you going to use a magic eye to change channels on the host Sky box - you must turn on the 9volt power in the sky services menu. I suspect that the digibox would pass the sky signal through to its output RF connector but you cant tap into this with your TV. It probably cant interpret the analog channels as it doesnt have an analog tuner - it can only pass the analog signal through to RF not scart out. Rgds, Scorp |

Hi Scorp,
Yes, TV and digi box in seperate room. I thought that the box had a seperate analogue tuner as receives on frequencies 474 - 872hz. The box shows all analogue channels as tuned (eg ITV) but then shows no reception! Is there any other way round this bar gettingf old DVD player fixed as used to be able to use this as my tuner? regards Mike |

I'm not an expert in RF modulation but the question has been asked many times and a quick search should pull up the answer - it's usually: get a specialist modulator (Maplin?) or use an ol piece of kit like a DVD or VCR.
