I to have noticed that one of my RCA UTV's seems very slow to accept the remote inputs. I thought that it was maybe the lighting in our bedroom or maybe the batteries in the remote were weak. But it seems that you can't enter the third digit quickly enough before the IRD switches to a two digit channel automatically. I have literly entered a channel such as 389 and it takes either the remote or the IRD so long to accept all three digits, what usually happens is that it will take the first two fairly quickly and then tune to channel 38 and then seconds later tune to channel 9!!! I haven't had problems with the IRD rebooting itself ever. Another difference that I noticed with this IRD is that the black background seems to flash a lighter shade when in the screen saver the moving icon (you know the RCA,UTV, DTV icon bouncing around the black background) hits the top of the screen, this doesn't happen with my UTV in my livingroom. Anybody else noticed this?
