Could it be that the long range mode of IR is not set (I saw no reference to
range setting in your source, and I don't know the default state). Despite the
difference in carrier frequency, the RCX 1.0 and RCX2.0 are able to dialog
albeit with a seriously reduced range. Perhaps it is what we see here if we are
in short range mode? I have yet to test with a 2.0.
