MGP's suggestion will allow you to watch the STB upstairs but you will no longer be able to watch the terrestrial channels or the video upstairs and you will not be able to watch terrestrial downstairs while recording some other cable channel.

OK, so what is the solution? Presumably you are saying i should take an rf lead from the stb output and connect to the vcr? If i do that, the incoming cable (or, rather, 'half' of the split cable) which currently goes into the vcr will be left hanging spare. That seems wasteful - should i plug it into the tv, instead of the lead it currently has from the booster? This would presumably give better quality on the terrestrial channels when the stb is switched off (on standby) - currently, because the tv gets it signal from the booster, the picture quality on 1-5 is significantly poorer than when i watch them via the stb.
Thanks again for all your help.
