Ahh to have big hands! The only remotes that qualify for ease of use are the URC-7800 and the original URC-6131. I've gone to the two-handed remotes now. I wish URC would bring out something with a nice design like the 7800, with a few more buttons. Of course Rob and I disagree on that. He's a big 1994 devotee. In comparison with the OEM remotes, any UEI remote is wonderful, but UEI did have a really nice design in the 7800. All the keys were logically located. The number shaped keys made it easy to orient by feel. And there was no need to put down the beer to operate the remote! It was a one-hander! The current one-4-alls have that boxy feeling, half the time I'd have it pointed in the wrong direction. Actually the only time I use my 8820 is for capturing signals. To be a serious JP1er you need at least one UEI learning remote in your collection.
