That's brilliant KIS. It tells me a lot about what's going on.

The lead you bought from Maplin is fine.

I think we need to determine first whether you box is faulty - it should be providing an RF output signal. Your new lead could be faulty but I think that's unlikely.

I suggest that you lug your other TV downstairs and connect it directly to the RF output of the STB. Switch on the STB and make sure you can see some channel on the main TV. Now do a tuning search on the other TV. There should be just one channel (probably number sixty-something) showing the same as the main TV. If there isn't try another lead if you can.

From your photos I can se that your box doesn't have an aerial input. This causes a little problem but we'll come to that later when we've determined if your box is faulty.
