Dish 211K Receiver

Anyone know if this model supports a RF Remote?
  • Thanks for the replies. Have a dish rf remote but it wouldn't work. Kinda figured the receiver didn't. Have to look into Bill and Kates RF Kit link.
  • I have the RF remote on my 211k. The Dish install guy did both at the same time. I remember paying more for it... it has a different remote and a little receiver box that plugs into the plug on the lower right side on the front of the receiver. It also has its' own power supply that plugs in separately. It works great with everything in the cabinet out of sight.
  • We have been looking at this on Amazon, but haven't tried it. Would be interested to hear about actual experiences.

  • I don't think so but you can buy a Rf to Ir repeater, about $40.00 on amazon.
