RE: Help .. any idvice on a small IR eye

Thanks for the reply Jim, but the ReadRat looks like a PC solution ?
i.e. USB with software running on the PC.



I really want a standalone system (repeater) that I can hard wire (via
cat5 ?).. pretty much like the xantech stuff but cheaper :-)

Er, just looked at the price. That's rather more than what I paid for my

old serial redrat! :-o
