I was wondering if anyone else has noticed that the 990 is less sensitive to IR remote controls?

From 15 feet away I have to work to get the 990 to respond to both the 990 remote and my MX500. The 990 is in the same location my 1050 was, and that receiver always worked just fine.

Could be something is up with my 990, but I wanted to see if anyone else saw something like this.

Thank
