Picture this: you are seated at home with your T.V and stereo on. With your remote in hand, you decide to take a leisurely walk to your kitchen for a glass of water; at which point you decide to adjust the volume of your stereo. You realize you cannot do that because there is a wall between you and the stereo and because your remote control is old and infra-red controlled. The used of Radio Frequency will increase the range compared to the range it has when it uses infra red technology. To increase the range of your remote control, you may decide to get an overhaul of your equipment and get new ones with radio frequency or you may go for the easier solution of purchasing an RF remote extender.
The RF Remote Extender will transform your old, infrared remote into a powerful RF remote. You will have to replace your remote control battery with a remote control extender unit. After doing so, all that remains is to point the receiver towards the equipment you want to control and you will be good to go. At this point the RF signal it will be emitting will be able to go through any barrier, be it walls or human beings. You will not have to have your equipment in sight for it to work. You will be able to have amazing control using your remote within 100 feet.

        The RF Remote Extender has got to be one of the easiest ways through which you can extend the range of your remote. You do not have to have any technical know-how to do it and you do not have to hire the services of a professional. Many dealers sell them through their respective websites and this is a good opportunity for you to sample the various models in store. You will need several sets, but the basic RF remote extender set will cost you $55 or lower.  Be wary of the items that come across as too cheap, they may be of poor quality and you will have wasted your money by buying them. This does not mean that you go for the downright expensive ones, you do not want to be ripped off either.  Be sure to compare the prices before you buy so that you can get good quality items. The other additional items you need can be purchased from the same dealers at a reasonable price.

The RF receiver is a device used to change IR signals to RF signal that can be interpreted by your electronic devices. Given the fact that most of our electronics are Infra-red signal equipment,, there is need to transform the IR signals into RF  signals. The RF receiver can be used to convert signals into a specific of signal depending on the electronic device on which it is used. The RF receiver has an antenna with which it receives the signals and converts them to either audio or video formats. A device called a tuner then separates the many signals it receives.
The RF receiver then decodes the information received by the antennae. There are many ways to decode information; there is Frequency modulation and Amplitude modulation. For you to be able to select an RF receiver, you need to have knowledge of the FM and AM modulation. The difference between he two kinds of decoding mentioned above(AM and FM) is that with FM, the frequency of a sine wave carrier will basically be departing from the center frequency by an amount that is equal to the modulating signal. The Amplitude Modulation is the effect caused when the amplitude of the sine wave carrier is varied by the baseband signal. Depending on the kind of modulation you desire, you will be able to make a choice as to the kind of RF receiver you desire.
There are many types of RF receivers, in the market, each with a varying capacity of changing IR signals to RF signals.  The W800USB RF receiver has the ability to receive X10 RF signals that have been generated from products that can produce signals of the same quality (RF). This can range from remotes controls to motion detectors. The receiver then sends these commands to the USB port of your computer and thus your computer will be able to receive the X10 RF commands directly from the device you desire. This device requires you to have a PC. It has an antenna which can be used to increase the range of reception.
The W800RF32A model is another X10RF kind of receiver for use with many X10 RF transmitters, like THE W800 USB model it has an external antenna for maximum range. SETTING UP an RF receiver is easy; you do not have to have meters and meters of wires running across your home. In fact you do not need extra wires for setting up your receiver. You do not need to have extra space in your home either.
