Wireless A/V sender advice/recommendations.

[Trash Man]

I'm having sky installed on Tuesday and would like to be able to watch it upstairs as well. I know you can get the sky multiroom thingy but that's an extra £10 a month on the subscription.

I've seen these on the argos site, do I really need to spend £100 on this sort of thing or do the cheaper options the job just as well? Also, how well do these things work? Is there loss in quality of the picture or sound, do they suffer from interference and picture break up much, if I wanted to add a 2nd or 3rd receiver later on, would that affect anything?

Anyone have an experience using these and have any advise or recommendations on models please?

Thanks.

av senders are good but you can get interference from mob phones,microwaves and noisy mopeds passing.
you could run a link from rf2 on your sky box and buy a magic eye then you con operate sky in your other room.
just make sure you turn the rf power on this will send power to the magic eye.

we got one from asda for 25 quid

was ok nothing special if you want reliability pay sky.

i doubt a 100 pound one will be any better then a 25 quid one so maybe pay the 25quid and put up with it is an option ?

Trash man, I bought that one and it was useless because of the interference (even in the same room). Granted I managed to get stereo sound instead of mono sound (using RF2 cable). Do not waste your money on that a/v sender.
