I'm not sure why you're posting it in rec.food.baking... But I believe it
is used in conjunction with infrared remote control in either with either
audio or video equipment.

I had a similar device that was plugged into a special jack on the back of
my TV. The other end was placed in from of the infrared received on the
front of my VCR. Using this I could automatically schedule recordings from
the TV Guide signal that was picked up by my TV. The scheduing was done
from the TV and transmitted to the VCR.

I wasn't admonishing you, just curious why you would post that here. You
might get a wider response from rec.antique.radio+phono. Despite that
it's name is "antique", they cover a broad range of other electronic
issues.

BTW, you don't have to subscribe to a group to read and post there.

FWIW, I'm fairly sure my answer is correct.

I don't know why I have it. I don't know what it is other than it's a cable
with a stereo plug on one end and what appears to be a light on one end with
velcro

I'm posting it here because this is one of my subscribed groups. I didn't
know what the thing was so I figured that one way or the other someone in
any or the other would know what the thing was. and that I am a member of
this group and mostly just look, so would sombody else. You for instance.
