So glad to have found you guys. We have a new RV with 2 Visio HD tvs and purchased a Dish211z. We are trying to add the bedroom tv. The receiver does not have a coax connection but a Hd (which we attached the 1st tv and it is working fine. The receiver also has the 3 AV colored connection. We purchased a Radio Shack RF modulator so we could connect to the cable that runs directly to the bedroom tv. We are only getting "no signal" no matter what input we put it on. The input choices are TV, AV, COMPONENT, HDMI 1, HDMI 2, and RGB. What could we be doing wrong?? Thanks in advance?

Thanks Bobby - we kept trying to get to channel 3 on each input - finally found how to channel scan on this new tv and it worked. So appreciate your help
 
Too bad it is a 211Z. IIRC that has no component nor composite outputs.
The 5-RCA-connector component could be used for an HD set along with HDMI.
Of course, as a mirror only.
The modulator is strictly SD as would be the composite yellow, if it had had it.
They may have stopped selling the regular 211, which does have component
and composite, again IIRC. Likely available for purchase used.

It should be possible to mirror an HD signal to both HDTV's from the 211Z receiver. It would require running an HDMI cable to the bedroom TV. Connect an HDMI splitter to the HDMI output of the 211Z receiver, then run an HDMI cable from the splitter to each TV. Both TVs would need to be set to HDMI input.
