-The MegaCode protocol is partially specified in the [[https://apps.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/ViewExhibitReport.cfm?mode=Exhibits&RequestTimeout=500&calledFromFrame=N&application_id=98433&fcc_id=EF4ACP00872|FCC]] documents [[https://apps.fcc.gov/eas/GetApplicationAttachment.html?id=112614|MegaCode1]] ({{:megacode:megacode_1.pdf|backup}}) and [[https://apps.fcc.gov/eas/GetApplicationAttachment.html?id=112615|MegaCode2]] ({{:megacode:megacode_1.pdf|backup}})
+The MegaCode protocol is partially specified in the [[https://apps.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/ViewExhibitReport.cfm?mode=Exhibits&RequestTimeout=500&calledFromFrame=N&application_id=98433&fcc_id=EF4ACP00872|FCC]] documents [[https://apps.fcc.gov/eas/GetApplicationAttachment.html?id=112614|MegaCode1]] ({{:megacode:megacode_1.pdf|backup}}) and [[https://apps.fcc.gov/eas/GetApplicationAttachment.html?id=112615|MegaCode2]] ({{:megacode:megacode_1.pdf|backup}}).
+It uses Amplitude Modulation (AM) on 318MHz.
+There are two levels: on and off.
+The transmission uses 24 bit frames and 1 blank cell.
+Each is 6 ms long.
+Within each bit frame a 1 ms pulse is send.
+The pulse is either in the first or second half within the bit frame (after 2 or 5 ms).
+This defines if the bit is a 0 or 1.
+The first bit frame is used as sync frame and is always a 1.
+It is followed by 20 system code bits and 3 data bits.
