I have what I thought was a pretty simple need -- we have a ceiling fan from Reiker that has a heater in it and comes with a remote to set the temperature. We would like to turn the fan on at a set time every morning, but the remote is RF.

My research brought me here where i searched the forums and found numerous posts of people looking for a remote that would learn RF and being told that it is not possible. But I didn't find any explanation -- can someone point to a post that might explain why this is not possible? I believe it -- I am just curious.
