The Homebrew transmitter from www.lirc.org/transmitter.html works great
and is easy to build. I got the parts for mine at a local electronics
supply, RadioShack has them too but I hear they are discontinuing
component parts, so grab 'em fast.

The parts cost me under $10 and it took me less than an hour to build.
