Getting a cable to a satellite dish
Had OSN agent round last week to set me up--more-or-less OK, put a new dish on the roof, but could only get one tv socket working. I want to watch in another room, but they said the tv socket is just that, with no cable feeding into it. Socket's on an internal wall. OSN said they couldn't do anything, get a local guy in who'll be able to get a cable from the socket to the roof--didn't sound convincing. Landlord said he'd get it sorted, but wasn't isn't inspiring.
Also want to be able to watch one channel on main TV and a different one (maybe via a free-to-air box) on t'other, so just plugging the other TV into the new box won't (I think) hack it.
Any suggestions on how it could be done, and who could do it?
