No problemo. I like this one for the application you described.

Ok, thanks to all for the suggestions.
I have a Magnavox TV and a RCA sat tuner which are primarily the units I
want to control with 1 remote. Would it be advantageous to aim for one
of those manufacturers when looking for a universal remote? Would a
magnavox remote give me a better chance of controlling all the tv
functions (off/on, volume, channel, picture menu etc) as well as the
fewer on the sat tuner (off/on/menu/channel). Thanks
