Had Dish Network hook up my all HD package today. My tv is the 720P MAGNAVOX 32MF337B. The Dish guy could not find the 3 digit code to input so that the Dish remote would turn the TV on and off. I googled around and someone else asked the same question at the satellite guys but no answer. Any suggestions?

The dish remote is 148785 or 5.3IR. I dont see a model number on the Magnavox remote.

I have not tried all those codes. The dish guy tried a bunch and then said it was not listed in his book that he had with him. I will start trying them one by one. Thanks

Thanks for all your help. Tried every code. No good. Tried the codes listed at Dish home page. No good. Headed for the manual now.

Dead in the water. Even tried the power scan. Nothing. Guess I will try calling or emailing Magnavox. Not much hope there, but I will try.

I called Magnavox this morning. They said that all of their TV codes are 4 digit. I looked for Philips codes at Dish but I think there was only one code. It did not work. I will try the Funai.
