(...) Those are the IR LED's - the one's that transmit the IR light that the receiver sees. Also, while I'm at it, I found out that the diagram above isn't completely accurate (I drew it from memory). The circuit I really use is like this: (...)

The Handyboard has a circuit (U7a, R4, C6) that generates a 38KHz signal. That drives an amplifier that then goes to J7, the IR LED output. If you hookup an IR LED to this jack (with a series resistor) then when you turn on TOC2 using ir_xmit_on() (...) (28 years ago, 24-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
