Hey, guys,
I have an installation where the displays are so far from the A/V equipment that the Pronto RF extender does not reliably receive the RF signal (Pronto TSU6000). Miraculously, everything else works great. I want to put the receiver over near one of the plasmas so it will definitely receive signal.

I have run into trouble trying to use the output of an RF extender with other wired equipment's IR inputs. Does anybody know what to put between a remote extender's output jack and the IR input of a Xantech device so it will work?

So far I know I can slap a dinky link onto the front of the RF receiver, but that sure seems like a dumb way to do it. Expensive, too, compared to just running a wire.

If someone does not know how to do this, but can give me a technical description of the output circuit of the remote extender, I can engineer a circuit to do what is needed.

Anybody?
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.
