457.0. "Add-on remote for Magnavox 1041 and 2041 players" by PAMPAM::CLARK (Ward Clark) Sat Sep 06 1986 16:26

    I'm a happy owner of a Magnavox 2041 player and was thrilled to
    read the following:
	
    	< Note 442.2 by NSSG::KAEPPLEIN >

    	Last time I talked to anyone at NAP, they were planning to sell
    	add-on remote control units for ~$40, but not in stores.  There
    	is a jack in the rear of the 1041 and 2041 machines for it.  I have
    	not talked to them in a few months, so the plans might be off.
    
    I think that this is an important enough issue for Mag owners that
    I'm creating this new topic so that it will be easy to find and
    track.
    
    If I weren't on the other side of the Altantic, I'd call NAP right now
    and find out the current status of this add-on remote.  Would someone
    please post the NAP phone number so that each 1041 and 2041 owner can
    call and indicate that there is a market for this option.

    P.S.  If you think that you've already read this notes once, it's
    	  because I erroneously replied to topic 442 instead of WRITEing
    	  a new base note.

    I called NAP.  First at headquarters in Tn.  615-475-3801, and they
    gave me the consumer accessories dept. (800-255-5122).
    
    The EM-2000 units will arrive from Europe next week along with the
    literature and retail for "under $50".  They'll have more details
    in a week or two.

    Thanks for the specific information on the remote.  I'll have to
    see if I can get one here in France before it makes the trip across
    the Atlantic.
