Hi I have finally done this i.e. take the Tivo box and move my V+ box to replace my SD box which drove a co axial network of 3 SD TVs with a booster. This was what happened

1. Coax output on the V+ was disabled and VM would not reinstate it even though Comtel had set up my coax netwrork originally
2. I tested the scart out put on the V+ box directly into both an HD and SD TV and both worked (in SD)
3. I tested the scart lead in and scart lead out to the same TVs through the Mercury modulator (channel not relevant as scart output is pass through - worked fine with a better picture and sound from the VM sd box.
4. Connected the coax network to the TV out port on the Mercury modulator
5. I had to search for the correct channel as 4 positions gave me sound and vision but channel 52 worked for me. Again the picture and sound (in SD) are better than through the original VM SD box. I did not need to retune the SD TVs but this may have happened automatically
6. I have not put the Marmitek Powermid XL in yet as I rarely need to change channel and i can walk from my office to the room downstairs where the V+ box is.

I hope this is useful
