Forgive me if I'm jumping in here guys but this is a similar question to
one
I had and never really got very well answered.

It's not a case of running *ONE* emitter but several ... not zoned ... but
just say one attached to each piece of kit rather than a single emitter.
Can
HV power multiple IR emitters directly or do you need to run an IR
distribution amp? To clarify things I wanted to strap emitters to my IR543,
my VCR, DVD, LD, video scaler, projector and amplifier which is seven
emitters but I never knew whether the HV could drive seven (all with the
same signal, not zoned) on it's own.

Now I just need to rig up a multi channel IR sender with a single receiver
... which I also don't quite know how to implement but I know that the IR
receivers on LetsAutomate are *HORRENDOUSLY* expensive! (I think this is
one
for Ian Birds IR PCBs!)

Cheers

Phil
