Summary: Nice inexpensive RF/IR remote
Review: Remote send out IR as well as RF to the transponder which sends out IR. It controlls my Sony STR-DA555ES, Toshiba 50", Panasonic A120U, Akai and Panasonic HiFi VCRs. This remote exceeded my expectations for functionality (PiP/input/menu for TV, most functions for DVD/VCR, limited function for my receiver but sufficient). It doesn't support any LD players, but even if it did, I don't expect my old Samsung LD player to be supported.

Its RF capability doesn't seem to work very well while my old pair of pyramid IR/RF remote extenders still functions flawlessly. Though not up to my expectations, this Jensen remote's RF capability is adequate, dropping it down to 4 stars.

Other annoyances: claims to control Pro-Logic receivers but cannot on my Dolby Digital/Pro-Logic receiver; only one receiver setting can control most of my Sony's functions except the power switch, I had to use AUX2 with a different code that can only turn the receiver on or off. It's not perfect, but it's the best I own for the price range. It's much more functional than my other programmable/learning remotes. I do recommend it.

Summary: Not what I expected
Review: The remote worked fine for my GE TV and Sanyo VCR. It also did about 85% of what I needed it to do for my Harman-Kardon Receiver. The problem that I had with it though, is that it did not work for my RCA CD player or DVD player. I would not recommend this remote.

Summary: Works exactly as I had hoped - great product
Review: This remote controls my TV, ProLogic reciever, VCR, and satelight dish. All work perfectly. I don't have much to say about it other than it worked just like I wanted it to. I can control my satelight from any room in the house and I'm happy.
