Thanks Jon (and Michael),
I've found the The lirc documentation a little unclear with respect to
its hardware configuration, I thought perhaps it did and that is
probably the major area of difficulty I am experiencing.

Perhaps I'll do the serial IR receiver too. A chance to whip out the
soldering iron is one to be considered :)
