I have other plans for a remote. Aside from anything else I want to
mount the receiver internally if I can.
I ordered two VisionPlus cards on Friday anyway, so we'll see what

send them back if I don't like them.

I managed to improve things a bit yesterday anyway, and my old box
is now getting all six muxes from the external aerial without any
problems - no more switching to the indoor for Mux B!
