IR repeater

[Lefisc]

Does anyone know of a simple, cheap IR repeater? I just have one unit, a Verizon Cable box that I would like to keep in the closet right next to my wall hanging TV. But I have to open the closet door so the remote “sees” the box. IS there a cheap IF repeater I can use.

Now this is NOT a universal remote situation. It is just one remote for the TV set.

I checked Amazon but saw nothing I can use.

An IF repeater? If I only knew ...

The Logitech Harmony One wouldn't do it Barry? I know I know it's a remote but still goes through walls. ...Harmony 900 RF.
{Only hundred bucks on sale.}

I am not used to things working out this well.

I needed the IR relay and, after carefully reading the Amazon descriptions and reviews, ordered it. The description said it would fit my Verizon box.

Very soon, I got an email from the company verifying my order and double checking that he device would be just right. I emailed back that it was.

I got in the mail about three days later and it works perfectly.
