Hi Carol

It looks as though  the nice chaps who came to set me up put the code in,
because I can turn the volume up and down.  I don't put the TV on standby,
but turn it off when I've finished using it, so will see if putting it on
standby with the TVonics handset works, then I'll know for sure that the
code is right.  All seems to be going fine, touch wood, so I'm very pleased.


Kind Regards,

Jackie Cairns

Jackie,

We've just bought a Tosh.  Which one do you have and have you found the code
to link yours!  There are heaps of codes for the Tosh and the guy at our
hifi shop today gave me several more that I hadn't got from our book;  so
the mind boggles ...
