Damon,
Yes I used 233181. direct dial No.  Tv shutsdown. When
you start auto program in cable mode it will scan 01
to 53 then start over and scan 01 to 69 and stop and
just sit there. If I put the old Eeprom in and try to
start auto program. You can bring up menu and
autoprogram and set it to cable,but when you tell it
to start with remote or tv it shuts tv down.
