My very customer oriented :-( cable tv company,
Montgomery Cable TV in Mont. County, Maryland seems to have
a proprietary IR control system on their cable boxes.

I've tried two different styles of universal remotes; one of the
learning types, and the 'All-in-One' (I believe that was the name),
where you enter a code based on the manf. of the device you
wish to control.
Neither remote would control the cable box, although the learning
style one would control power on/off.

I'm looking either for suggestions for alternatives, or
specific answers/leads to universal remotes for this cable box


thanx
