Overview
Bt remote is an open-source printed circuit board by mpfisher69, from the mpfisher69/R2R-Bluetooth-Remote repository on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board of 73 × 53 mm with 57 parts on 62 nets, routed with 144 tracks and 34 vias.
It is built around the BC848. Its parts include 25 resistors, 9 diodes, 8 transistors, 4 capacitors and 1 IC. It belongs with the radio and wireless and retro computing and games boards and the ESP32 boards of this library.
Main components
1README
README.mdBluetooth Remote Controller
For Reel-to-Reel tape recorders and vintage cassette decks.
Works with any open-reel (reel-to-reel) tape deck equipped with remote control connector, with active-low inputs
It replicates functionality of original Technics remote controllers such as RP-9690 and RP-070 (including reverse-play function).Connects to remote controller input on Technics RS1500, RS1506 and RS1700 and also on Akai GX-635, GX-636, GX-747, GX-747DBX, GX-77 and also vintage cassette decks.
This Bluetooth remote can be wired to other makes and models of tape machines, as long as they are equipped with a "tactile" tape transport buttons and "active-low" logic, such as Pioneer RT909.
Screenshots:
I have some of the receivers fully built, if you don't want to build one yourself.
Please contact me for details.
Software is provided "as is" without any guarantee. I am looking for a colaborators who would want to develop it further and also help develop iOS app for iPhone/iPad.

Questions
How big is the Bt remote PCB?
It measures 73 × 53 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Bt remote use?
57 parts, built around the BC848. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Bt remote KiCad files?
From the mpfisher69/R2R-Bluetooth-Remote repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Hardware/bt_remote.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Bt remote design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask mpfisher69 before reusing the design.
