Dumb question. I want to change from a 811 to a 211. Presently I run one HDTV and a SD TV in another room. I must watch the same broadcast on both TV as there is only one tuner.

Does the 211 work the same way. Can I run two tvs one HD, and one SD at the same time with the same boradcast.

One difference between the two receivers that usually pisses off a lot of customers; no UHF remote. It's a PITA if you have a projector or, in your case, you want to change channels from a remote location

Thanks for that tidbit of info. Not having a UHF remote seals the deal. Time to start saving for a 622.
