Geocache Description:

I was out for a stroll on a quiet Sunday morning. I stopped for a few minutes as admired the surroundings. It was quiet and shaded. Ignoring the blight behind me, I admired the will power of the plants and trees. They persevere though abused and ignored. They provide comfort and serenity. Staring at the trees I imagined I was high up in the nearby hills in a distant, remote location. I often sit at my desk in a nearby office building imagining I am at the same, remote locations.

I have piles of technology around my house. Everything comes with a remote. My stereo, my three television sets, my VCR, my DVD, Home Sound System, car stereo, portable DVD, digital camera, electrical outlets, weather station, minivan, garage door, Wii, Xbox360, lamps, cell phone and wireleess network! I am sure I left several more out.

Everything has a code. Code to program, Code to emulate, Code to connect, code code code! Never ending codes!

I went out and bought a state of the art multifunction remote to consolidate all bazillion remote controls. I could use a little help with the last few and getting it linked to my Bluetooth cell phone and, of course, my WiFI 802.11a/b/g/n/f/s/t/f/u network.

Here is a list of codes I am down to figuring out.
LG Cell phone   001,11,1,100,999
Mitsubishi      6,11,14,19,22,27,41,63,75,84
Philco          06,07,10,11,13,16,19,27,33,35,37,38
GE              0,00,000,8,9,12,28,38,68,86,89,91
Samsung         006,011,014,015,19,20,36,37,040
Netgear         65231548996574633123549875
I am pretty sure it goes as follows:

Philco (11) Mitsubish (5) GE (5) Mitsubish (7)

GE (6) Samsung (6) LG Cell Phone (1) Netgear (divided by 13046309799314926624709975)

If I am not mistaken, the sum of all the codes I need is 39.
