In this older thread of mine:  
[http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=389652&highlight=remote](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=389652&highlight=remote)  
I complained of not being able to discover codes to program it to my new tv.

On ebay there is the same one being offered:

[http://cgi.ebay.com/UNIVERSAL-REMOTE-AXESSION-3-CONTROL-DEVICES\_W0QQitemZ220082140786QQcmdZViewItem](http://cgi.ebay.com/UNIVERSAL-REMOTE-AXESSION-3-CONTROL-DEVICES_W0QQitemZ220082140786QQcmdZViewItem)

If I provide the model number, I can get the code.

Any help?
