Hey, wouldn't it be cool to have a sort of "calculator laser tag" using the IR link? What you could do is have the laser modulate on a frequency different from the transmission modulation and be constantly active. When the other calc picks up this signal is flashes that it has been targeted. Then, if a "fire" (send) button is pressed the shooting calc sends out an IR pulse on the normal frequency (30Mhz), and, if it picks it up, the other calc records a "hit". This would very cool ;) -Pat Gray PXGray@aol.com
