Harmony 880 & 2nd 942 ?

[Hart5150]

I have a Harmony 880 and currently control an Expressvu 9200(dish 942) and a Directv HD-Tivo and it works great. Well I am switching to Dish and will be replacing the Tivo with a Dish 942 on Sunday.

Does anyone have expierce with controlling 2 942's independently?
Does the 880 have the ability to do this?

You're probably out of luck... since the codes are the same you can't tell the Harmony to control one or the other.

The infrared is going to send signals to both and they're both going to react.

About the only thing you can do is control one with the IR and the other with UHF... making sure you change remote addresses on one so it only responds to that particular remote.

The Harmony 880 does not transmit in UHF; IR only.
