ok need to know how my sisters house is setup.
i haven't seen the state of it yet but sounds like they have coax sockets in every room but none of them gave signal, and dad says that he can see the cable coming from the ariel into the lounge from outside.
in the loft is 2x satellite connections and these 2 i think go into the lounge so i assume they had sky throughout the house?

ideas?

try signal tester then get tv an out?

Confirm main aeriel signal is in lounge first using tv and move on to next
Outlets in most rooms would suggest a distribution amp in loft has been removed?

The usual set-up is.

Aerial and Sky come into the lounge. They are then sent, via the RF2 output on the Sky box, up to the loft where there should be a distribution amp, this distributes the signal to each room.
