That's a tough one, the best I can suggest is that you try some of the upgrades for similar FTA Sat receivers to see if any of them work.

While doing a Google search to see what a CoShip is, I did find some useful info though:

This site has some software that you can use to re-program the unit:

And this site has some pics of the unit and the remote:

Here's the CoShip homepage:

Here's the user manual:

They say the coship2300 is just like the strong srt3680, but none of the strong files
posted here worked. Strong has models of receivers that are totally different from
each other. The strong srt4640 is exactly like a coolsat, the coolsat remote will work
100% with srt4640 firmware installed. I was hoping somebody would have one and
also have a learning remote to absorb the coship2300 signals.
I found out the blackbird remote has the same power key hex, also the numbers 1 to 9,
tv/radio,guide,menu,exit all work with coship2300 firmware.The other buttons don't work.
I don't have a receiver to play with, I am trying to help others that are experimenting.

Thanks for the links.

The Blackbird files here all use the NEC1 protocol with a device code of 0, which is a very common code, so if the people that you are helping are JP1 users, or at least are using One For All remotes, it should be pretty easy for them to figure out the rest of the buttons. (If they're not JP1 users, what good would an upgrade be anyway?).

Good news, I contacted the seller of the following ebay listing and he has spare remotes available for $15 each (shipped).

I'll email you his info.

[Edit]There is now a JP1 upgrade available for the Coship 2300, and it does indeed use NEC1 device 0:
