I do not, but can likely cobble that up from old remote parts. I am also using a 22" Samsung digital tv whose tuner has failed, as a monitor on my cnc controlled lathe, and it would be very nice to be able to skip picking up the remote and turning it off as I close up for the night. As is, it does go dark, but the backlight is still on. Cheers, Gene -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
