Re: IR receivers / housings

[Joseph Heenan <joseph-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Des,

Nice fine, thanks - have ordered one of those to try. Don't really want
to be ordering magic eyes just to throw away everything except the
pickup/cable (not very eco-friendly), but it does seem to be the
cheapest way to get hold of the cased IR pickups by quite a way! :(

Thanks

Joseph
