 This remote control deserves to be called universal August 24, 2008
This remote is the first universal remote that really is universal. It gave me the opportunity to place all my equipment inside the closet, far away from TV and still have control over all components, even such things like HDMI switch. You need to spend some time placing emitters (6 are supplied) in the best spot on the face of each component to have the best results. Placing them directly on the optical component's sensor might not be the best thing to do. With RF20 you have an option to customize it the way you want. Setting it up was not difficult at all. It came with instructions on DVD, but I did not even open it. With other universal remotes you may get to control the unit, however there will be always couple of buttons that you will not be able to control. With RF20 remote you don't have to worry about that. If you are missing couple of buttons RF20 can easily copy them. If you have old remotes, remotes that are made by little known brands RF20 will copy all of them.
This is the most amazing product I have ever had.
 Not compatible with Directv HD DVR August 20, 2008
Don't buy this if you have a Directv HD DVR. I bought one and then was informed by Universal Remote's so called help desk that there is no code for Directv's DVRs. I can program it using the learning function of the remote but then the vital 30 second skip cannot be programmed. A complete waste of time and money.
Great Remote August 18, 2008
I originally bought this remote to control my family room satellite box and AV receiver from my patio. I have a tv in the patio that is connected to the satellite box from the family room. I was concerned that the remote would not work, since I had bad luck with a radio shack rf/infrared solution. The remote works as advertised with great range. It was easy to program. It controls everything I need to for only 79.99. I would have paid 200 bucks to get this performance. I liked it so much, that I bought a second one to control a tv in another room. I did not even have to connect the flashers. You can't beat this remote for the money.
Flawless RF transmission July 30, 2008
I'm a very happy user of RF-20 with its Master Control/Blaster. My media lies in garage and wires are run to my living room. I was looking for a universal RF remote and I tried several but some did not work with my devices like ArchosTV+. This works well with everything I've thrown at it (DVR, Dish, Archos, Roku, Samsung, Symphonic, Westinghouse).
Previously, I was using Sony Commander RX-1400 and converted it into RF by using NextGen batteris - a neat concept but not perfect. If you do not press hard enough, sometimes signal would not communicate. Another one had sensitivity problems. This one is perfect - and so cheap. I widh it was PC programmable but it was still very easy to setup.
It may not be the most beautiful remote out there (for example I liked Sony's layout better) but the beauty is in its execution and transmission through walls and instant - with a very light touch. Amazingly, it works better than Dish Network's own RF remote for 722 (which has some hit and miss ratio in my setup) - and same goes for Archos TV+.
If the company adds PC functionality like trackball and small QWERTY pad to it, then it'd really be the last remote control you'll ever need in the living room.
old information July 25, 2008
the information send with the product was obviously old as none of the numbers worked in programing the remote. I have been putting it off,but I guess I will have to use the learning method with all components. This takes too much time.
