Modified IR remote to use RF

I was considering modifying a SONY compiant IR remote control to send using one of the commonly available RF modules. I'm aware that the IR control modulates a 32KHz (or similar) carrier and had intended to overcome this using something like a monostable IC to remove the carrier then use this to switch the RF module. Does anyone understand how the INFRAIN routine in a PICAXE interprets the incoming signal? Ie. Does it look for bursts of 32Khz signal or just focus on the transitions generated by the original modulating signal from the remote ?

Try posting this into the Main Forum.
This is the SandBox for testing posts e.g.
to see if ASCII art works etc.
I have some IR code that just relys on the
sending of multiples of a valid IR burst
rather than the data contained/encoded within.
But put your question into the current Main
Forum for a broader response, they don't bite, well only occasionally, throw peanuts.

The main Forum is the very top one on the page "Picaxe Forum"
