From what I have read, you can use multiple ports out of the DirectTV receiver to accomplish this. So for example, HDMI to one TV and Component to another.

You would be watching the same channel on both though.

ETA:

Then you will need to make sure your remote and reciever support RF and set them up if they do. LINK This is so you can control the receiver from farther away.

Yep.. I have my outdoor TV plugged into my living room box this way. Works perfect for me especially with having a streaming devices available on both TVs for the rare occasions when I would want something different on either one.

Here is an option for controlling the receiver in another room once you get the signal split: Remote Control IR Extender
