Certainly easy enough to do with earbuds, RF headphones and assorted
music sources.


I use my RF headset at night too. I really prefer it even though the
entertainment center audio is available around most of the house if I
switch over to it. I can also switch those (4) remote amps to local
sources. They all have some way to play MP3s and video from the server
too.
There is about a mile of Cat5, 4 wire shielded audio cable and coax in
the house.

The one redeeming value of the sat boxes Dish has is the RF out ports.
There are 4 "channels" on my internal cable network that can select
each tuner and I have RF remotes to run 2 of them. I also have an
agile modulator on the PC and the RF from my ReplayTV on that cable.
They are on unused UHF channels so my broadcast antenna amp is there
too.

The only reason I am not a TV station (from the antenna) is the amp on
that is "one way".
I did test it.
