Richard, I worte something on this before, but maybe y'all can bare me
repeating here.
Do you know those keychains that were made for people who lost their keys?
You Whistle and the keychain turned on a melody making it easy to find your
keys. The keychain was tuned to a certain freq. that responded to your
whistle.
WHAT IF
you had one of those, but instead of it turning on a melody, it turned on
something else, like a reverser switch, or watever you want.
shouldn't be too hard to get bot "A" to whistle at the right freq. My
walker "chirps" in reverse in a very realistic cricket voice, but it can be
tuned to whatever noise you like.
O well. just a thought.
