Urgent! Univ Remote For Dish

1953 · 12-23-2006, 06:31 AM

I want to program and give a new universal remote to my son and his wife for Christmas tomorrow. What universal remote is good to use with Dish?

Thanks and Merry Christmas,
Louisp

Harmony 890 works well with a 622. When programming, I had to add a screen button for the DVR button and change the setting for aspect control from the TV to the 622. Online programming worked fine once I got into it. (I think the less expensive 880 is the same except for inclusion of the IR extender.)

UniversalRemote makes some of the best remotes. Tweeter carries some of them in Dallas

I use the "One for All Kameleon" at http://www.mykameleon.com/support.html
It is the cheapest one that I could find that does the job for all of my components. Turn off the motion turn on detector or you will be changing batteries all the time. If money is no object go for the Logitech remotes.
