Latest BHN Remote? Latest BHN Remote? |
Is this the latest BHN remote? I saw this in my brother's house and he said it was. He has DVRs though and I don't. Is this just for DVR customers or do non-DVR customers get this too? |

This is the latest remote and it works with standard and DVR remotes. I recently swapped mine for this one as I like the new one better than the older models. |

This was the remote I got when I picked up a DVR a few weeks ago. I took it back and got a large button remote. The agent said it was the last one they had at the office as they are being phased out. What a shame the easy to use larger button remote is going away as its much better than that new model. |

I will check on that phased out part and get back with you. |

The large button remote I got is in great condition, appears new. I will be set for a year or two with it. |

If I remember right, that large button remote doesn't have as many buttons/functions as the pictured remote, and the remote we're all used to. I could be wrong.
I have the pictured remote for one of our DVRs. The main thing I like is the ease of programming, and the red backlighting of the buttons. The layout is slightly different then the one we're all used to. |

Could you check and see if the Melbourne office has any in stock? I'll need like 4 of them if possible. |

That's the same one they have. We didn't specifically request a "large type" one yet they got that one anyway. Thanks though. |

I like the old Atlas 1056 wish I had that one.. I like the positioning of the volume and channel changer position. I have the new one as the OP pictured. The new a bit awkward trying to reach up top to change volume and channel buttons. In comparison of the placement of my hand. Unless I have to hold the remote towards the top rather than holding the remote in the center.
My channel button doesn't seem that responsive almost like I need to press it hard.
Maybe I got a lemon.
Would be nice if all remotes were designed on the most used functions like power on, channel +/-, Volume up/down, guide, then put the other buttons in order of what you the average user would use next.
Unless I am not average. |

Maybe I got a lemon. This is the result of normal wear and tear on the remote. It's most common on the very popular buttons like Power, Cable, and TV. I can imagine how annoying this would be if you channel surf, so don't be afraid to exchange it. |
