| | I guess since they showed us how to do this yesterday that we are supposed to know it now. 
From what I know it works on all remotes where you can set the remote address.

This would be great for those that have children that know it all and want to restrict television access to them by setting a different remote address that they would not know how to program to match it in case they get a different remote (if you lock the front panel buttons and take the remote away while you are gone).

Well up here in Northeastern CA there is one street where I believe we have in use more then 10 UHF pro remotes. All 10 remotes are within the same 10 house long block. The last time I installed a 522 on that street I went to the other houses I knew had UHFP remotes to make sure I didn't conflict. Now with this I doubt I will have to annoy the neighbors again. I can also see this being helpful when an apt. complex begins to fill up with UHFP remotes.

It worked for my 301s. I have a related question. Is the code stored in the receiver? If your remote batteries die, or you have them out for a while, will this loose the code? I changed my remote address to 30, removed my remote batteries, put them back in and it still operated. Just curious where the code is stored. Thanks.

I code is stored in BOTH places. Obvious if you think about it.
The remote has at least a capacitor to preserve the code memory (remote address, other device code numbers) for a few seconds while you change batteries. It may even have more than that - EAROM for example.
