| | | Hello all! As I am constructing an RC guided Lego Car (No, I don't want to buy a 5600. I want to create it all out of individual Lego bricks.), I thought it must be able to make an IR to FM link, like those little things you see to transmit IR (...)

I imagined more of the RCX just outputting IR signals to an apparatus that translates them to FM. These (...) (24 years ago, 31-Aug-00, to lugnet.robotics)
