Weak RF signal
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am disappointed in this remote and I bought two of them. It seemed to have all the bells and whistles you like in a remote. But the RF signal strength is so weak that I have to press a button multiple times to control the TV/audio functions. I have done research to see how to improve the signal strength on the new remote with no success. I was hoping the signal strength would improve but it didn’t. I just got use to pressing a button multiple times. If I use the remote right next to TV it works better. I have gone back to using the original Directv remote because the RF signal performance is a whole lot better than this new remote. I’m gonna look into returning the new remote if not past return date but I think it’s too late.

It's a Remote, what do you expect
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's the DirecTV remote that you can get it Best Buy versus having them ship it to your house. The downside that used to have them with the light button on the side so you can see the buttons in the dark.

Remote control

Great Remote
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I sent my son to buy a new remote since he dropped and broke our old one. I like all the options which you cannot find on the newer Directv remote. It does seem to periodically fail which is frustrating.
