Review on πŸ“Ί Enhance Your TV Experience with a Replacement IR Remote Control for DIRECTV RC66RX RC65R 4-Device LCD LED HDTV Plasma TV TVs A/V Receiver by Jeff Dabney

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great deal and here are the pairing instructions

Doesn't have built in lights like my previous RC66RBX but a darn good deal at $5. But mating required the sacrifice of a goat. /sarcasm Pairing the remote with the HDDVR HR22/100 worked for me. Yes I know, but once Elon Musk's Starlink is up and running I will be canceling my DirecTV and deactivating my satellite deal. Locate the 12-digit Receiver ID (RID) of your DIRECTV receiver. You can find the RID number on the back of your receiver, or inside the card access panel next to the reset button, or printed on a sticker that came with your manual.2. Write down the last six digits of the RID.3 number. Slide the mode switch to DIRECTV, AV1 or AV2.4. Press and hold the MUTE and SELECT buttons until the green light under the selected switch flashes twice and release both buttons. Use the number keys to enter 9 6 1. (The green light blinks twice.) 6. Short press CHAN UP. (The green light will flash twice.) 7. Use the NUMERIC buttons to enter the last six digits of the RID number. (See step 2 above.) 8. Press and release the SELECT button. (Green light blinks twice.) Found on dbstalk.com. The DirecTV site was useless. I have no idea how durable this thing is, but this is my third remote and first DirecTV DVR.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
