Hi!
I also try to use RF to replace IR communication. My idea, to create a RF/IR
two way adapter and to make an RF tower connected with PC. The adapter taped
with RCX can receive RF signals from PC and pass to RCX by using IR emitter.
And if RCX send messages out. The adapter can get IR signals and resend by RF
trasmmiters. I have been messing in RF with RCXe for some time.
Any comment?

Other approaches would require deep hacking, I believe. I envisioned two devices: 1. (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
