I need an IR repeater
I am gonna wall mount the TV in my bedroom. I don’t want to deal with finding a spot for the cable box though. I need an IR Repeater right?
Somone wanna help me out and show me what I need?
Yeah they work pretty good. The one I had was an RCA model.
When I had DirecTV, I only wanted one box rental charge, but wanted to change the channel of the box in the living room, from my bedroom.
The one end of it sits in front of the cable box with an antenna on it, the other end you put it where you want it. I put it near the bedroom TV.
Pretty much point and shoot.
I bought mine at walmart about 5 years ago for 35 bucks. Probably cheaper in the age of ebay…
I think mine is called a remote extender, not repeater.
I’ve been doing research over here. Apparently with my receiver, I need one that operates at 60Hz, which means I have to spend like $85 on one. Oddly enough, they have it a home depot, Might give that a try.
Can’t find one on newegg.
Search for xantech, they’re the best in the business. They have plasma, lcd and crt specific models. Plus they’re all over the net. Don’t buy a crappy one unless you want to be perpetually frustrated.
