Is there any way to watch different channels on one TV other then the channel that is on the sender TV?

No

However if you have a VCR, use the tuner in the VCR to feed the X10 Sender.

Thanks Dave W Could you elaborate on that a bit? I am using a cable box (cox) and I do have an old VCR around here somewhere. Are You saying to hook the VCR inline with my cable box and DVD player then hook the X10 sender to the VCR?

If the cable box is used to tune to the channel, then you're stuck with that single channel unless you get a second cable box.

But if you change channels by tuning the TV, then you can pick up a splitter at Radio Shack.  Feed one splitter output to the TV, the other to the VCR, and then the X10 sender to the VCR.
