[QUOTE="Bill Ellis, post: 826141, member: 59929"] I had similar problem. Dish Net receiver is in basement where we use the IR remote for TV1. We use the UHF remote for TV2 in our bedroom on main floor. At times, the remote would not work. The problem was intermittent; no pattern it seemed. Then one time, I noted that the DVD player in another room was "On" in standby mode. I shut if off and voila! the UHF remote worked just fine. Seems the DVD player emits some weak RF noise when in standby mode that jams the UHF remote signal. Now when the remote doesn't work, the first thing I check is the DVD player, then I turn it off. So, check to see if other electronics devices affect your remote. [/QUOTE]
