Sky boxes are already setup for use on 2 TV's. There is a second RF output on the back marked "TV2" or "Second TV".. Something like that anyway.

Once the second TV is connected you can setup each TV output independantly from the Sky Digital Services menu.

The RF TV2 output will work on its own, the picture wont be as clear as if it was on a scart/digital. But the good thing is you can run a digi eye to change chanels from another room

Not 100% true. Ocasionally you need to turn the second RF output on using a installation menu menu on the sky box. For that you need to know the installation menu code. The digi eye's run off 9v feed and they need to enable them to work. But sometimes they are already turned on so you don't need to bother with all that! Like Clarkie's one!
