- I may be mistaken, but I beleive that VCR Plus will do this. RCA has a new
- VCR out with VCR Plus and an emitter that faces up through the top of the VCR
- so that it can control your cable box. You just position your cable box on top
- or above the VCR so that it can "see" the emitted signal. There's a review of
- this VCR in this months Video magazine.
