This remote features a code library to make it easy to control up to 4 of your A/V components.

Don't lose control! The DIRECTV RC66RX Remote control operates all features of the DIRECTV receiver. It also has an option to operate select DIRECTV receivers that are fitted with standard RF capability. The built-in RF feature allows the DIRECTV remote to control the receiver without having to point it at the receiver, even from another room or in a setup where objects (such as a cabinet door) are likely to block the beam.

This DIRECTV RC73B universal remote can control up to 3 devices and operates as a replacement for most DIRECTV receivers. This remote includes both infrared and RF modes and features an ergonomic design for comfortable use. The remote works with most DIRECTV receivers in IR mode and is compatible with most third party DIRECTV receivers

The MX-790 is a programmable, handheld remote can directly control all the IR devices in your entertainment system – TV, A/V components, cable, satellite boxes and more. It is ideal for use in home theaters, family rooms, kitchens or bedrooms. The brilliant 2” color LCD screen displays up to 48 devices. When used with a compatible Complete Control base station, like the MRF-350 and MRF-260, the MX-790 controls integrated A/V components through walls and cabinet doors, or even from outside. There is no need to point the remote control at the components or even be in the same room.
