The remote for the Revox B77 & PR99 is done. I've had two customers test them out and they both say it works fine. I only have limited quantity of PC Boards so order quickly before they're gone.
Next project is a remote receiver for the Revox B215 tape deck. The B215 uses a serial interface instead of the parallel interface I'm used to dealing with on the Nakamichi and Revox B77/PR99 models. This one is almost fully coded and about read for testing. Do you have a B215 and are willing to be a beta tester. Contact me if you're interested. My email address is p9019 @ yahoo.com.

Current projects
I recently bought a Nakamichi Receiver 2 and am currently working on an adapter that will translate Nakamichi System Remote commands from the Receiver1/2/3, RE-1/2/3/10, AV-7/8/10, CA-1, IA-1z and several other newer receivers and the CD Player 1/2 Sync. Rec output into remote commands for the Classic Nakamichi tape decks (580, 580M, 581, 581Z, 582, 582Z, 680, 680ZX, 681ZX, 682ZX, 700ZXE, 700ZXL, 1000ZXL, BX-300, CR-2, CR-3, CR-4, CR-5, Dragon, LX-3, LX-5, MR-1, RX-303, RX-505, ZX-5, ZX-7 and ZX-9). Nakamichi has a box that does exactly this, called the RC-4, but, it is not available anymore.
For my next project I am searching for a cheap DR-3 or DR-8 so that I can make an adapter that will allow one to use a universal IR remote control to control the Nakamichi CassetteDeck series and the DR-series.
Update 5/30/08 - Nakamichi 730 Receiver Remote Receiver. These units are tested and ready to go. I've been selling them on eBay.
Update 8/1/07 - I have finished writing and testing code for decoding the serial bit stream for Nak System remote. I will now start writing the code required to translate this code into signals compatible with the classic Nak tape decks. Basically duplicating the Nakamichi RC-4 remote signal converter which is no longer available.
Update 4/29/07 - I received chips from Ireland for building a remote transmitter compatible with Nakamichi's original RM-580 receiver. This is for people who may have an original RM-580, but, are missing the remote transmitter. 8/1/07 - I'm trying to find buttons to use for this project, but, am having a really hard time. There are only a few buttons that would work in the case I have. They all seem to be special order or very expensive.
Future projects - Contact me to get on the list to be notified when it's available. The more people get on the list the faster I will get it going.
Nakamichi RM-580T - I'm trying to remake the transmitter for the genuine Nakamichi RM-580. Why, because I have one that needs the transmitter and universal remotes don't work.
