So Mistergq--if I understand right, the USB-UIRT cable already has an emitter on it, and I would only need to buy the "blink emitter" if I was using more than one cable box? If so, that should answer my question since I will only be using one box.
So the blink emitter enables you to send commands to a second cable box, is that right?

I have never set it up to do it, but its my understanding usb-uirt does have an emitter, but you have to have it pointed in the right direction and hope that it works. If you take a look at their web page about it, it shows it has an emitter.

I used an emitter for one box. I just ordered a second emitter because I will be controlling two boxes now.
