(...) I think it effectively uses 9 data streams, the switch selects which 3 are assigned to the 3 controls (ditto in reverse for the receiver). But I could be wrong.... ROSCO (22 years ago, 10-Feb-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) You can't run a 5599 at the same time as an 8475. They interfere with each other, and only one of them works at a time.
