Finally bloody figured it!!!!!!

It was the outer part of the satellite cable causing the problem, so i cut back the outer wires TOTALLY, so basically all that is plugged in is the inner core cable and all works perfect!

Thanks all for your help!

PS am i being really stupid as i cant find the "download" section?

Thanks again

The saga continues!!!!

Now without the outerpart of the cable connected (as such), im getting poor/no signal on all BBC, and satanta1, but connect it as it should be and all is fine!
Does anybody know what would cause the interfearance on the outer part of the cable?

Thanks again all!

Last and final update!

All is working perfect now, it was all down to the splittter i was using!
Installed another that i found in the cupboard (i think it is the orignal splitter ntl fitted) and all is good!

Thanks again for all your help folks!
