Watching sky in spare room via coaxial wire

Hi All,
Need some advice on watching sky in another room.
I have my skybox and tv in my lounge. I also wanted to watch sky TV in my spare room. I managed to get a coaxial wire running from my sky box to the spare room - but the picture is not clear on the spare room tv. It is watchable but a bit grainy and fuzzy - almost like an analogue channel
The coaxial wire is new and not damaged. I have the connecters fitted properly at each end.
One end of the wire is connected to the Sky box at "RF Out 2" and the other end is in the Aerial socket (spare room TV)
Any ideas as to how I can improve the picture on the spare room TV?
Thanks in advance

In the installers menu you will find a setting to change the rf frequency it sends the signal on. Play about with this and u may get a better picture on a different frequency.0

OP Have you actually enabled the RF2 output, and made sure that your bedroom TV is actually tuning in to the correct channel and not a sideband, and yes its analogue (with mono sound to boot!)That gum you like is coming back in style.0
