RE: [KAT5] kat5 RGB fails IR with component



Hi Keith,

Yes I was using the Kat5 receivers - but not for a while. Did find they
were much more resistant to the LCD interference than my installed IR
network through the Russound CAV6.6 system :) ... at least with one of the
other IR receiver types you sent me a while ago.

Paul.
