I have a crazy problem that i can not figure out

after rewiring my complete home theatre - I moved my irf-6 to the basement with a high gain antenna

unless i was point at the box or antenna it did not work

i checked all 6 channels as well as making sure the remote was set up for RF (which it was)

I then moved the irf-6 and antenna back upstairs and the problem isa still there

the rf worked just 1 week ago

i unplugged all wireless routers and phones and i still cant get rf

any ideas??

i am just about ready to give up and get a univerasl mx-950

Instead of giving up and buying an mx-950, why not upgrade to a better processor & remote? Buy a T1, M2, or T2+ with an RP-1 or RP-6 - I am going up in price...
Sync up a new config file with just one button for RF. Make sure all connections are tight. Obviously when you moved the unit you disrupted something which explains why it still does not work. Did you load a new config on when you moved it? If so, try with your original config for upstairs. Other than that it sounds like interference has been introduced to the equation that has not been there before...

I don't know how much shelf life the IRF-6 have,

Make sure to have the antenna plugged in before powering up the processor.

I second vbova27 on the upgrade.

I would upgrade to the t2c but i hate the fact that i have to pay someone to program when I enjoy doing it myself

IF you look into a T2c, ask the dealer if they can help you out with obtaining the software, You seem to be knowledgable with the older version already. The new remotes are nicer and the software is a tad easier to use.

You will of course have to upgrde the RF base unit as well as the IRF-6 isnt compatable with the new remotes
