Universal Remotes

Hi. I'm currently using Logitech Harmony 650 remotes to navigate Directv.

Problem is Logitech is no longer producing these remotes. One remote isn't working

very well because of old age.

Was wondering if anyone can suggest other universal remotes that go well with Directv.

Anu help will be appreciated,

James

DTV remotes still work.  A search for learning IR remotes  shows a few.  I also use a Harmony One Touch.

RC73 can be found on Ebay or Amazon and work just fine.

I do have 2 RC73s.

I programmed in my TV and it works ok.

Just a matter of getting used to it.

Some claim to be "new in box". Your mileage may vary.

I had my RC73s put away for so long I forgot I had them.

Never realized I can use them to control TV functiond.
