So, you have a splitter with two outputs, A and B. If you have A plugged
into Sky and B unconnected it works, but if you connect B to the SkyStar
card A stops working, right? And if you swap so that A is plugged into the
SkyStar card it stops working when you plug B in? If that's the case I'd
suspect a faulty splitter.
