Check the site above for all info.

I've built the thing and I have it working now. Very cool.

I built the receiver according to their specs, and I'm using the remote from my old Alpine car stereo. Now I can control the volume, track, rewind/fast forward, play/pause, and close winamp by remote. Smile

I'm such a geek, it's sickening. even to me.
