VOX Remote does not "do" RF mode ?

I have a Mini 1st Gen, BOLT 500 GB, BOLT 1TB, Premiere 2-Tuner, and two Roamio Pros.

And two VOX Remotes.

I cannot get the VOX Remotes to work in RF Mode with ANY of them !

I can get standard Roamio Remotes to do so.

So I plugged a VOX Dongle into a Roamio, and the VOX Remote paired via RF instantly.

SO - to pair in RF Mode, does a VOX Remote require a Dongle or a VOX box ?

 

Will do.

I am using TE4 on everything but the 4TB Premiere, and will attempt TE4 on it after I have transferred its recordings.

I think TE4 sucks, but I just can't swim against the tide.

 

That is good news !

My Premiere with 3.5" WD 4TB PURPLE AV WD40PURZ is safe, then.
