Default Aerial Signal Strength

Look for 2 scarts out so you can record and watch something different.


How does this work?

I was under the impression that it was a single signal receiver.

The usual configuration is

one scart lead from Set Top Box to TV - watch prog
one scart lead from Set Top Box to Recorder - record freeview
one scart lead from Recorder to TV - watch replay.

If you have/will get a hard disc recorder that can record something, and
play back something else at the same time, or let you catch up on a prog
while it's still being recorded, you need the extra output.

It's also easier operationally - freeview is AV1, recorder is AV2
