At the moment I do some reading about the NEC protocol. This is very good information at a level that I can understand.  

The reason for this is that I bought a beautiful vintage amplifier, HK6350R, without a remote. The device had some strange problems, the volume runs high or low at random or dropped random in standby mode. The problem was the M50761 processor IC201. After I removed this chip everything worked normal albeit without remote control.

Now I'm trying to add "something" to this amplifier to get the simple remote function for volume and standby back. I can drop in an Pico or Arduino but I also have some PIC-controllers lying around that I can use, such as the PIC10F200. A simple little controller.

[Edit:start]
But I will start with the Pico and MMbasic for a faster result. What the hack cost a Pico these days.[Edit:end]

I'll keep you posted and see where the ship ends up. I'm retired and have far too many "projects" again.
