</div>$60 should get you at least 3 remotes and 3 receivers. I don't<br>
consider the above to be cheap.<br>
<br>
I don't use one myself (I built a serial IR receiver from parts), but<br>
people claim to use MCE remotes, like this one:<br>

<br>
Or just use the receiver for it if you have a remote.<br>
