I agree with Scoop about just leaving the cable boxes on, but for those who want to turn the cable box off and on discretely, I have an answer that may work. I want the credit of this to go to my friend Hailey Williamson who came up with this idea. Its not a true discrete code by any means but it will get you by if you just have to do it.

As you probably know, when the menu button is pressed on the DTC6200 while the cable box is off, the DTC6200 will go into setup mode. Using this to your advantage, try this sequence of buttons:

Power Off - MENU POWER
Power On - POWER MENU POWER POWER

I will test this tomorrow and let you know how it goes. I'm on satellite so I have to test it at work.

Let me know how it works for you.
