I haven't seen any reports on the BBS yet if these work or not. In order to work, they'll need to use the same carrier frequency that the Empeg's IR sensor is using, which IIRC is 38 Khz.

Test it out first... Bring your Empeg to the shop with Hijack installed and use the Button Codes display to make sure you pick up some kind of codes coming in. Then the IR Trans is simple.

If you get it, let us know how it works for you!
