This may have been discussed here recently... if so, perhaps someone
can point me to the archive.

What's involved in building a wired IR repeater ? (to control equipment
inside a closed cabinet for example).  Is there more to it than just
a receiver, amp, and transmitter LED ?  I seem to remember some discussion
where a 555 timer was being used (to re-time perhaps ?)

Does anyone have a circuit for such a beast ?  I know where to buy them
(for $50+) but I'm interested in integrating a homebrew circuit...

Thanks.

Chris
