Interference with DTVA and AV-hub

I have a problem which is a bit difficult to explain, but I'll try anyway.
I recently got the DTVA and was trying to install it in my AV setup by
hanging it off an AV-hub (Philex, 6 in, 1 out, IR selectable).  This works
without a hitch for a DVD-player, PSone, TiVo, VCR, Canal+ and Sky Digibox.
As I had plans to dedicate the Sky box to the TiVo and use the DTVA for
normal 'live' TV I disconnected the Sky scart and inserted the DTVA one.  As
soon as I connected the Aerial lead to the scart connector, interference
occurred on the output, like it was overamplifying the signal.  A
buzzing/humming noise accompanied it as well.

Thinking I had received a duff DTVA I plugged it in straight into the TV and
it worked without flaw.

To circumvent things I have now dedicated the DTVA to the TiVo, and use the
Sky box to watch 'live' TV, but ideally I would like this problem sorted.

Does anyone have any suggestions?  Are there things like filters in
existence, which might offer a solution?
