Hello,
This may seem a little odd, but I want to get the RCX talking to  the
PC wirelessly without compromising the infrared sensors!  This may seem
a little odd, but it is because I need line of sight between the two
robots, but communication from anywhere with the PC.  I don't need this
to be secured or anything fancy, just plain communication, as the RCX
would do through the IR port, only wirelessly.  I'd also prefer not to
have to use custom firmware.

Any ideas how to do it?

Bluetooth isn't an option unless you can have up to 50 or so devices
paired at once!
