Title: Removes the Clutter
Review: The glowing reviews for the RF20 sold me on purchasing this unit. After programming, I was able to stow four separate remotes, out of sight and mind.The unit works perfectly. The most used control is for the STB (set top box, in my case, Direct TV), somewhat strangely named "SAT" (for satellite). The RF20 allows control over all the STB functions, including the DVR (via one of the submenus) after plugging in the appropriate pre-programmed code.The macros for all components "on" and "off" are also useful.My primary complaint is that the manual, as others have observed, is weak, weak, weak. What would be useful is a pull out card that lists the programming steps in one column that can be read (or followed) at a glance, rather than paging through the manual or making your own list of steps (as I did). A list that fully names the abbreviations used on the sub-menus would also be useful.For my purposes, the PowerBlaster is not required. The RF20 alone should suit most users.
Is the review positive or negative?
