What was the Plan 9 from Outer Space interocitor ?

Probably because its a one-off
standard sig gen to provide the basic variable clock frequency, 8x8 DIL
(expandable later on) switches to set up the code , variable monostable to
insert the implied zeros in those DSO-determined codes and basic variablw
mark/space setting for gating variable IR LED pulse oscillator and a
learning remote or 2.
So once a collection of URC tried/ LIRC library/Arduino library etc have
found a route into an unknown/unavailable-remote for a piece of "dead" kit
it would be possible to get the full range of function codes, including
those of normal inadequate URC that do not have the button for the function
that you need.

What was the "Plan 9 from Outer Space" Interocitor?

The Interocitor first appeared in "This Island Earth", a wonderful "pulp"
film. It was later used in a "Coneheads" TV special, which Britishers would
likely not be familiar with.

"Plan 9" had a language-translation device, the "robo-dictatoor" [sic]. None
of the actors pronounces it the same way.
