On the BlackRadio facebook page, Paolo Viappiani asked for information 
on the option codes for the WJ-8718 (and related receivers).  I compiled 
this list from the documents I have.  I'll post it on my website when I 
get a chance.

While compiling this I noticed there are 34 versions of the WJ-8718, 4 
versions of the WJ-8716 and 3 other variations tagged WJ-8714, WJ-8715 & 
WJ-8717.  There was also a WJ-8719 which is a narrow, remote control 
only version.
