Hi all,
I have bought a new TV to go in a different room and have got a Nikkai HQ+ 5.8ghz video sender kit.
I currently have a sky + box which already has a magic eye attached for a tv upstairs.
So far I am struggling! I have managed to somehow make the sky prog that is showing on the "old" tv on the new one, but when I use the remote to change channels nothing happens.
Can anyone explain in really simple language
a)what I am doing wrong and
b) how to set it up so it works?
What do I plug in to what? The sky box? the "old" tv?
Any help for this novice would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Is the sender in a position where it can transmit the signal to the sky box?
Maplin sites says now compatible with sky/virgin remotes. So possible older units were not compatible?Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0 -

Sounds like you have set it up alright but you just can't change channels. Are you using the the right remote? Have a look at this....
