Nice writeup :-)

Excellent. I notice that the Keyboard uses a different system code 2
instead
of 12 for the keyboard.

Just guessing, but as Sky and Sky+ use the same button codes with just a
different system code, I would assume that the navigator codes for normal
sky would be the same apart from the system code.

Given that System Code is only 4 bits there are only 16 possibilities.

0 = Sky Remote
2 = Sky+ Keyboard
12 = Sky+ Remote

so only 13 system codes to go :-)
