My parents decided it was time to upgraded the 722/625 setup to a Hopper/Joey system. I have been searching many threads but I would like to get some clarifications on a few things before I start upgrading.
Going with a solo node and one hopper and joey for now. There is a TV in the garage that is rarely used but I wanted to mirror the Joey output to this TV from its location in a interior house bedroom. The mirror location is maybe 60 feet away from the Joey box. Is this too far to get reasonable performance from a second Joey remote used on the mirror TV location? I know the Joey does not have an external antenna.
I am going to mirror the Joey using a RF modulator. Can anyone give me some suggestions as to some models that have worked well and are inexpensive? Right now I just have the one coax but I can run another. Im wondering if I need one that will do higher frequencies than CHAN 3/4 if im going to combine it into just one cable. If its a big deal I can run a dedicated coax just the mirror signal. Ive heard different reports how well this works.
Want to hear others experiences....
Thanks!
