my new rental property has a URC MRF350 RF receiver in a cupboard, which has all the AV cabling, but no remote for it. I want to put all my AV kit in this cupboard.

I prefer the Logitech Harmony range of remotes over URCs, but need to know if they will work over RF? I.e. will a Harmony RF remote talk to the MX350 and pass signals successfully on to my AV components?

Any other cost-effective solutions? It seems wrong to ignore a £250 device and get the Harmony RF Extender (for £75), but I will if it's the only solution.

Thanks in advance,
Col

No. URC RF in the UK is 433MHz (or 418MHz for most North American models), and Harmony uses 900MHz.

OK, thanks Daniel.

I think for now I'm just going to get a PowerMid system until I see some progress on Android bluetooth/wifi to IR extenders - like the Griffin iPhone only model.
