Finally got around to do some checking.
Connected coax direct to the 211k in the bedroom while leaving the main 211Z connected to the outside IN...Had setup screen in the bedroom but would not connect to progamming.
Then connected coax to the main (211Z) direct and coax direct to the 211k in the bedroom. The Main connected to basic channels (not our Programming). The 211k got further this time by trying to acquire a signal and then going to error screen saying not available.

Will have to look for any splitter but that won't be for awhile as we will be on the move...the DW will have to watch the Main feed.
