I have just had my sky box replaced by telewest cable system. The sky was transmitted around the house using a system of powered amplifiers and worked perfectly ok on 3 extra TV's in the bedrooms. The telewest box was a straight swap and the amplifier system was not touched. The technician stated that if I tuned the the othe TV's into channel 52 the system would work. He then left. The picture quality on the bedroom TV's is unwatchable due to a weak signal. Is there any way of improving the signal coming from the Telewest box to the amplifiers system. Telewest say the boxes are not designed for this but I think they are just trying to get me to rent another box.
