Have you tried a universal remote? If your set is 1981 vintage a universal may work every bit as well as did the original, except you may not be able to use some of the advanced features of the TV with anything other than the set's own remote.

I'd look around the bedroom for your set's original remote. Perhaps your nephew just hid it somewhere. I think the remotes for that vintage Magnavox TV are good-sized units and are not easy to lose track of.

Good luck.
