I am not sure about the remote unlock but I know how to extend the range of the remote.

Press the end tip of the remote to your chin and you can extend the power of the remote by another 10 feet.

During the mid west meet, we discovered that aformationed position gives the best range for the SVX remote. The taller you are the more range you will have.

Also dropping the remote helps once in a while.

I was being serious.

I think it would. Never tried it though. Man, one of these days, my head is going to explode. Cell phone (my only phone i have), and my car remote.
