DISH322 UHF remote power...

[RockinRight]

If I get a DISH322 reciever, and the reciever itself is in the living room and the second TV and UHF remote are in an upstairs bedroom of a 1200 square foot home, will the UHF receiver be powerful enough to change the channel from upstairs through walls and floors?

Also, it says "agile modulated output" for channels 21-69 - does that mean I'll have to put the second TV on one of those channels to use the RF output for the second TV?

1. Probually yes
2. Yes

The remote will work fine at most homes through walls. On a few rare occasions it has trouble but if it does you can just diplex the uhf antenna into the tv2 backfeed. You then put a 2 way splitter right before the tv input and place the little UHF antenna there. This will solve any reception problems for the remote.

The TV2 backfeed can be set on ANT feed channels - 21-60, or cable feed 73-125 I think it is. You just set TV2 to what channel you pick, program the remote to the TV and your all set!

WiCkeDuDe is correct, but had a typo when he repeated your Ant channels.

TV1 = Channel 3 or 4 (should work with TV set to either Ant or Cable); and
TV2 = Air Mode 21 thru 69, or Cable Mode 73 thru 125.

It's all on Page 26 and Page 27 of the owner's manual, located at:

Thanks Smity,
I have to make my fingers go on a diet I guess.
