I've got this working.  The initial learning/setup was a PITA. 
And one of my biggest problems is that I've got an older satellite
box that doesn't have a direct serial or other type connection so
I've had to use the two lirc instance setup, one to receive for the
PVR-350 and one to send back out to the satellite.

It is working quite well, only major complaint is the speed in which
channels are changed, it has to jump through a lot of hoops to do it
