</div>That's a good way to go. To make sure they don't try to stick you with a single dual-channel receiver tell them you need<br>
to have HD on both "sets", or that there is a problem running cable to the second "set".<br>
<br>
There's nothing inherently wrong with the dual-channel units. I use the second channel of my 722 to feed SD to my Mom next<br>
door, using the UHF modulator, which works fine for SD. If you need HD the second output is useless, and, as I said, has to<br>
be controlled by RF. As long as you understand and can live with the limitations, the dual units are OK.<br><br></blockquote><div><br>Darn, I was hoping that I could hook the Component HD out to an HDPVR and the SD out for TV2 to an older PVR150 to help with conflicts. I did see that you can get a converter from IR to uhf for about $50 here <a href="http://www.dishdepot.com/remotes.jsp">http://www.dishdepot.com/remotes.jsp</a> . But at that price, it probably makes sense just to get 2 single boxes.<br>
