[Amps] Remote control of Alpha 9500

[Michael Tope]

Yeah, there are all kinds of interesting gadgets out there for this sort 
of thing nowadays. Last year I needed to go a ~150 feet with HDMI video 
from a laptop up to a projector for a performance I was helping a friend 
with (we discovered at the last minute that a construction crew had cut 
through the venue's video cables). For on order of a few hundred bucks I 
found a workable solution at the local Fry's Electronics that used HDMI 
transceivers on either end of ordinary Cat5E cable. It worked like a charm.
