Hi all.

I've been experimenting with the range of the Infrared communication between
RCX's.  I noticed that RCX #1 could send a message to RCX #2 at a distance of
about 80 feet.  However, RCX #2 could only send a message to RCX #1 at about a
distance of 8 feet.  The battery level of RCX #2 was only 5-10% lower than RCX
#1.  Have other people found such a big dependence on battery level for IR
range?  Is there an official published range for the RCX IR?

-Ben
