Copenicus, do you have any experience building LIRC blasters?

I was looking at building Petteri Aimonens circuit on a standalone GPIO device.
Code:
       +5V
       |
      _|_    -->
      \ /    --> IR LED
      ---    -->
 BD237 |
   |---'
 --|
   |->-o------------,
       |            |
      | |50Ohm    ----- 100nF-220nF
      |_|         -----
       |            |
       o------------'
       |
     ----- Earth
      ---
       -

Then using listen/connect on lircd to send commands from Pierogi. This will mean I can send commands over Wifi instead of being limited to 3 meters from my TV and aiming.
