I'm sorry, for some reason when I read RF, I was thinking IR.
I'm hoping to figure that out as I go along. I'm not sure exactly how to
setup a UHF transmitter, and I would also need to connect it to MythTV
somehow. Perhaps I could pipe it through LIRC and have some software or
hardware convert the IR signals to UHF. I've never worked with RF before,
so this is going to be a learning experience, if I can figure out where to
begin.
To provide more info, I have a DishNetwork 322 Set Top Box.
