RF Remote for Extender

Can anyone recommend decent RF universal remote to work with the extender?

I realize any universal can be made to work but I was looking for something that had a decent match on the button list.

would love to have buttons already labeled for maybe two speeds of fastfoward, menu, guide, home, back, prev channel, watched etc..

I need to be RF, either a RF remote or a regular remote with extender. RF remote is better as I have been getting interference from the LCD tv in my IRA-2 IR reader already.

The extender only has an IR receiver. You would need to get a setup that had some sort of RF to IR extender. The Harmony 890 IR and RF and IR remote.

yes.. I did realize that any RF remote I got would have to have a RF to IR module at the end.

I think the 890 and the IR module is more then I paid for the sage extender.

that is a cool remote though, but I was looking for something cheaper unless I am wrong in the fact that this a few hundred dollar remote. I would like to keep it at the $100 mark if possible.

$150 is the best I could do.

Osiris RF Remote
Most others range from $400 to $1,000. Kameleon had the Kameleon 8 RF for about $60 but it's discontinuied. Maybe search for that on eBay.

You could try this: Internal RF Adapter for almost any Remote $45.00
