Thanks, Austin.
The site you suggested appears to be for a "Heidelberg' radio (in a
Scirocco), which I suspect is a Blaupunkt/Bosch model, as they
usually use the city monikers. Blaupunkt's web site gives
step-by-step for reprogramming their radios along with a 1-900 number
for the code itself.  Mine is manufactured by Matsushita, which I
think is Panasonic/Technics parent company. In any case, I think I
have solved my problem through the kind assistance of the following
