Hi:
  You'll not have much luck trying to unrender to the cable what they feel is
theirs.  The problem is not the remote, it's the cable box.  If you don't pay
for the remote, they disable that feature in your cable box...even if you had
a cable co. remote it won't work!  They can turn the remote capability on/off
over the cable :-(.
