Hi there, I'm new here and looking for some answers so sorry if this is posted in the wrong place.
Basically, I have moved in to a new house that has faceplate style coax connections rather than just cable from the aerial/dish. I watch most of my TV on Freesat from Sky, but I occasionally use Freeview to watch channels like Dave, which require a subscription to watch on Sky.
My problem is this: When both the Sky and Freeview are connected to the faceplate, the Freeview loses the signal, even if I unplug the coax to the sky box, I need to retune the TV to get Freeview back. My questions are, why is this happening to start with? Surely behind the faceplate there's just two cables, one running to the dish and another to the aerial, so why should they interfere with each other? And, a long shot but is there any simple way to fix this?
Thanks
Here's the faceplate socket thing
