Slave TV Question

[Day Tripper]

I have multiple slave TVs in my house coming off of my two R15s using the RF Output. I love this feature because I don't have to have a receiver in each room. With my HR10 there is no RF Output so I can't upgrade my remaining receivers to HD receivers without losing my slave signals. Is there any way around this or am I forced to purchase a receiver for each room?

I used an RF converter like this (http://www.amazon.com/Philips-PH61159-RF-Modulator/dp/B0001GGXQI/ref=pd_bbs_1/102-2380877-9722538) to take the composite out on the HR10 and send it over coax to my slave TV.

This is not optimal since you have to set the HR10 to 480i in order for it to send a signal that can be handled by the converter and SD TV - and then switch it back to watch HD. I also set up an IR repeater system at the slave location so I can easily send the up-up commands to switch between HD and SD.

Not as simple/easy as the RF out on the SD boxes but it works...

Thanks Chris. I didn't think there was going to be an easy solution.

This might help.

But, the HR10 will have to be outputing 480i.

I use an old vcr to accomplish this task. I just turn it on when I need multiple outs
