I just got an urc-9800, I was able to program it to control my TV but I can't get it to control a "Sony A50 Satellite Receiver" (4th Generation)-- "0639" doesn't work-neither does the code search-- Does it work with that receiver or is the remote defective? If I can get it to work with the satellite receiver I would like to program the unit to control an "RCA RT2250 Audio/Video Receiver (Home Theater)" Any suggestions? Do you recommend that I keep the URC-9800 or is there a better alternative?

I got the Sony A50 to work, the receiver was set to UHF--- but, I can't get the RCA RT2250 to operate--- PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would recommend receiver code 0054. To program the input selects you should try advanced code 227 using an RCA code for whatever the device is. For example, to program a button to be the input select for VIDEO2, you would select an RCA VCR code (in this case use VCR/0202) and then program advanced code 227 to whatever button you want to use.

Check out my site for more instructions and codes.
