    DIRECTV IR / RF Universal Remote Control (RC66RX)

    • Good price, fast shipping and all the buttons work which is more than I can say for the original one with sticky buttons that wore out after 7 years.
    • On our older DirecTV remote of this same type, several number buttons and the guide buttons around the Select button were beginning to fail
    • I really liked the look and feel of the RC73 remote but found it lacked some very useful buttons so went and ordered this to replace that one.
    • Replaced an earlier model with a defective fast forward button with this one
    • All buttons work as marked.
    • You will know this is the case if you press a button (like volume up), and look at which LED lights up at the top - it defaults to go to the DTV receiver no matter what the slider switch is set to
    • After my Logitech Harmony 300 quit working (after less than 2 years some buttons stopped working including volume up
    • Bought this because the buttons on the original one were extremely hard to use
    • other (rubberized) buttons were silent
    • At this really reasonable price I can purchase new remotes and eliminate the poor button response.
    • There must be a flawless in this type remote because I have encountered 2 of these recently where the 3 button stopped working.
    • My old remote RC65RX wouldn't program in RF mode and even in IR mode the buttons were very slow at responding
    • Several buttons on ours had stopped working
    • The noisy navigation buttons annoyed my wife while we were in bed and she was trying to fall asleep
    • It is very solid and the buttons feel great
    • I really liked the look and feel of the RC73 remote but found it lacked some very useful buttons so went and ordered this to replace that one.
    • Over the past year I've had to press my guide and volume buttons ridiculously hard and repetitively to get them to respond on my old DIRECTV remote
    • Purchased as a replacement to an existing remote due to a bad button
    • Had to replace our DirecTv remote as the buttons become unresponsive.
    • It was small and the volume and channel buttons made an annoying, loud clicking noise
    • Great deal on the older style remotes, I dislike the new style remote as there are missing buttons and functions, the new remotes style seems to stay working longer than these older ones as it seems that the button connections onn the older style,inside get corroded or make poor contact after several months of use.
    • The buttons get much less responsive over time but for less than $7, these are inexpensive to replace.
    • The look great but remotes get dirty, get to looking worn and the buttons stop working with a light touch so need to be replaced often.
    • My husband strongly disliked using the new ones and was constantly hitting the wrong buttons since they are smaller.
    • very nice seeing, and not groping, the buttons on remote.
