Replacing a Joey 1.0

Great news. Not only can I get her timer back for her but she can use the remote she is familiar with. I will set it up for when I get home tonight.

Remote will work, but the timers may or may not be there, don't get to excited yet

I've restored timers (settings, etc) multiple times with no problem. One problem I have had happen is it restores an "old" set of settings. Knowing a receiver was being replaced, I would do a lot of cleaning up of timers, sometimes getting rid of 50% of them, then I did a back-up. When I restore things, it brings back all of those timers that should have been removed. The 'back-up' didn't indicate any problem like the back-up failed, so I don't know if it keeps multiple copies and restores the oldest or what.

I got the remote linked so she can use the remote she is used to but decided not to restore the timers. I have already set up her top 20 so figured it was better to just leave things as they are. She seems fine with what she has so why rock the boat.
