Actually, I only have one serial port as well. I just wired the two transmitters in parallel to the same pins on the serial port. I was a little worried about it drawing too much current, so I increased the resistor values a bit, but it works like a charm... -darren _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
