I bought a Radio Shack 4-in-ONE REMOTE at the Big Lots Store for $6 and
it works the TV, VCR, and cable box. The TV and VCR are Sony. Some RS
Stores still sell this remote.

I tried to use the Radio Shack remote with a Phillips TV to no avail, so
I bought a Phillips universal remote and it works just fine except this
universal remote has no return to previous channel switch. Target gets
$8 or $9 for the Philips (Magnavox) universal remote.
