Got Digital Set Top Box in Living Room. Can I tap it to watch digital in tv in bedroom?

Think the heading covers it all. I realise I might need to keep tv on in living room and can only watch same channel but on both tvs but that would be ok. Is this possible?

Yes, you`ll need to get a signal transmitter/receiver. I got mine a couple of years back from Lidl around £40 (I could watch DVD/VCR & Freeview from main tv on tv in bedroom),
see here from Maplin £39.99

If you hunt around some good offers come up. Also do a search on DVD Reviewer for more information.

The main tv doesn`t need to be switched on. You use the set tup box remote control at the other tv. What you can`t do is watch 2 different channges on the 2 tvs using the via the set top box. But you could watch say BBC1 via analogue and another channel via the set top box, depending on how you`ve tunned your tv that has the set top box.
