The combination I've used for a few years now with my MCE USB recievers 
has been a universal RCA RCRP05B Remote programmed as a Scientific 
Atlanta 3250 cable box remote. This has given me the most flexibility 
with the multi-function plus red/green/yellow/blue buttons and it being 
a really cheap remote. Sometimes less than $15.

Unfortunately, it looks like that remote is no longer manufactured. I've 
been looking for a good replacement but haven't yet found it.
