I definitely don't use that remote. The only reason I bought that remote was for the serial IR adapter. It has an obscenely long cable and just plain works. I use the 15-2117 (same as the 15-2116 but with UHF - they discontinued it.) from Radio Shack. It is an *awesome* JP1 programmable universal remote.

I had already read how terrible a remote the PB one was before I bought the kit. Like you, the plan was to just use the receiver. I tested with the PB remote and an RCA 4in1 Universal remote (set to RCA vcr mode and a few other random manufacturers). When I rebuild my testbox, I'll try again with several of the remotes I have sitting around (I swear these things are breeding whenever I put them away in the cupboard. There always seems to be twice as many remotes in the box as the last time I looked).
I'm afraid to buy a JP1 remote. It would just entice me into building a programming cable for it and waste away far too much time playing with the new toy. :-|
