Retrieving the signal is easy with a oscilloscope. You'll get the pattern, then get the frequency. From there. Or a Spectrum analyzer with a Rec/playback option. I used to work on these type devices. PCB layout, circuit design, and Fab. The one thing I couldn't do was writing the code. We had a software engineer for the.



I like the work you put into it so far. I was thinking of putting a 4 digit preamble before the shot signal to identify the tank it came from(using the Tamiya fire code after the preamble will let it work with standard Tamiya unit also). and have a Bluetooth link from the unit to a laptop. Putting all combatants with their ids in the computer and registering shots. Then expand it to 2 way communication. Depending on what type tank and gun shoots you the laptop link will adjust damage accordingly. What is the number of I/O ports available?
