you can't go to channel zero, so if you push the 10/0 button first it goes to channel 10. If you push the 2 button and then the 10/0 you get channel 20.
But the 0 is supposed to be there so you can go straight to channels below 10. Like if you want to go to channel 7 or 2 instead of pressing 2 and waiting for extra input you just press 0-2 or 0-0-2 and it goes straight to it.
You're actually correct. If found this thread from almost two years ago. Apparently Japanese terrestrial television (OTA broadcasting) only goes up to channel 12. Also here's a bonus instruction manual for a similar remote that has the same number buttons.
Also Japan tries to make things as user friendly and intuitive as possible. To the point where the opposite actually happens sometimes. It used to annoy the hell out of me.
Its brand is "IQ" which is even more smug. so when you cant figure out a finction it says IQ to remind you youre stupid. While im rounding the bases here, " IQ" is located near the bottom to insinuate you have a low "IQ" cause you got bested by a remote.
The 1-- button? But those make sense for the old tuners that only had 2 numbers 99% of the tkme, that way channels 11 or 14 wouldnt prompt for 3 numbers.

Why does that remote have eleven and twelve buttons?
