I have been looking into this more. The Niles IRZ6+ offers a multi zone IR repeating facility. I could have zone 1 use receiver 1 and zone 2 receiver 2. Has anyone used this Niles product?

If I went down the route of 2 manufacturers do the dish and receiver have to come from the same manufacturer? I could buy a Sony and an RCA receiver and run them from a Sony dish for example.

This would also let me do a side by side test on their relative merits!
