Those older remotes were (if you're thinking of the same thing I am) for 
varactor-tuned cable boxes.  The buttons simply select from one of 'n' 
voltage dividers and the varactors in the box act accordingly.  Probably
not a good answer for this problem.

Someone else has already mentioned that you could probably hack up a remote
and "press its buttons" from a sequencer circuit of your own design.  

Another idea is to get one of the universal remotes (such as Memorex CP8;
a version is still sold by Radio Shack, I believe) which can memorize 
sequences of keystrokes which can then be activated by a single button (or
maybe two).
