ESP8266 - 16x2 LCD, IR receiver with Apple Remote

Edit : Ignore, different pin choices seem to have sorted receive

Digging up an old thread, but it seems most relevant. I was messing with IR receiver on Puck with no issues, then decided to apply same on NodeMCU ESP8266, with same detection code as used on Puck and the array just fills with false positives, no signal anywhere near. I wondered if you'd encountered anything like this on NodeMCU @Wilberforce? You may not remember I understand.
