I currently have Sky+ and one of the best features for me is that I can record something and watch it either downstairs or in the bedroom.
Is it possible to get a FreeSat Hard Drive Recorder that would work through my current Sky TV link ? I would also need 2 remotes.
Is it a case of just looking for a FreeSat+ box with a RF Out Socket, then trying to source a additional remote ?
I beleive I need a box with RF Modulation What boxes on the market have this ?

Thanks For Your Help!!

I use:-

This is an Rf modulator I use with my Humax Foxsat PVR. Works a treat.

No use with a second remote as far as I am aware. My Sky link only transmits the Sky remote signal.

Would this plug into the back of your Humax box ?
So I could watch the Humax box on a 2nd TV but I couldn't control it from the 2nd TV using a remote ?
Thanks Again

You can get seperate remote extenders.

For sending remote I use smart blaster and eye. http://www.beststuff.co.uk/bluedelta_smart_eye.htm

The retransmitter is so strong you just put it on top of hdr and reflected IR from room is enough to work well.

Thanks for all the replies !!

Would the HUMAX PVR9300T work with my Sky+ Dish rather than a standard aerial ?
