Re: Feedback to Guage on Denon - Now Working

Fiaso, it is on your enthusiasm that I have elected to get the onkyo.
Where can I find their protocol? Could you email me a copy?
I am currently working on an "apple style" remote for the onkyo for now
just the images and buttons.
I emailed onkyo (no response yet). Downloaded the 156 page manual for
the tx-nr-5007 but no mention of the protocol.
The unit is difficult to find in London. The shop keeps telling me they
will be in stock soon. I hope it is worth the wait. . .
