I have a Hitachi 57TWX20B RPTV and the factory remote has discrete input buttons for the various Video inputs, PLUS an 'ANT' button to switch to antenna inputs.

My question is regarding the fact that the ANT button seems to toggle between ANT-A and ANT-B. Does anyone know if there are discrete codes available for ANT-A and ANT-B?

I've looked over the 0145 device listings which I apply to my TV, but I didn't see any discretes for Ant-A or Ant-B.

I suppose that in place of a discrete ANT-A, I could use (say) "Vid1"+"Ant" which should always return me to the ANT-A mode since I don't use ANT-B. But this would be rather annoying as a macro.

Has anyone else dealt with this issue? TIA.

This was something I had saves since I have a Hitachi TV

Jon,
Many thanks for the codes. I just tried them on his 43FDX10B and the
Input and Antenna codes I was after work great. The Power On and Off
don't, but we are still ahead of where we were.

I have a 50UX26B that I will try these out on
when I get back home this weekend.

Thanks again for your help,
Mike

John,

Yes, I had already looked over the TV_0145 listing, but there does not appear to be any discrete Ant-A or Ant-B codes.

This is just a guess. I gather Ant A is your main tuner, and Ant B is the Aux tuner. If this is true, do 186 Antenna/tuner, and 052 Aux work for Antenna A-B?

Thanks for the response Ron.

Advanced codes 186 and 052 don't seem to affect the input setting on the TV at all. 057 toggles between Ant-A and Ant-B.

I've since learned that one can use Ch-up or Ch-down to switch from a non-Tuner/Ant input back to the Tuner. This can help in creating (kludgy) workarounds for the apparent lack of discrete Ant-A and Ant-B. Just thought I'd share that.
