Lines: 11 I have a remote control TV I want to turn on with my clock radio. My first idea was to get the chip out of the remote controller and hard-wire it to send a turn on pulse. The problem is, the IC is no longer available. What I need now is some way to read the code that comes out of the controller and wire up a digital equivalent. I've tried reading the code with a photo diode and scope. The code is quite complex. Is there an easy way to do this? Jerry Willard, Tektronix jerryw@teksce.SCE.TEK.COM.UUCP
