Foxsat HDR and FOX T2 and Harmony 300 remote

I have got fed up with having too many remote and bought a Harmony 300 (which apart from the website crashing all the time ) was quite easy to set up. The problem I have I can get it to operate the Foxsat HDR and Fox-t2 indepedently. I had previously reprogrammed the Foxsat to be on channel 6 which had sorted the problem on the original remotes. When I programmed the Harmony the Foxsat would not work. Looking on the web it was suggested it was the remote frequency. I changed it back to 1 and now it works but both the foxsat and the Fox t2 are switched on and off. Any suggestions?

Exactly the same equipment as me (well mines the 300i) and I too had this problem, I could not find any way to get it to work so ended up moving the Fox T2 into another room and used the built in Freeview on my TV.

Its great that Humax offers the different remote channels but sad that the Harmony cant mirror this, unless someone knows different?

Found a fix. Change the channel ref on one of the boxes and then teach the commands from that box's remote to the harmony. It does work but is a bit of a chore to do.

I had to do the same recently when I got a Humax Freeview PVR in addition to my FOXSAT receivers.
