RC-6 Mode 0 and Mode 6A is briefly describe here: http://www.picbasic.nl/frameload_uk.htm?http://www.picbasic.nl/rc5-rc6_transceiver_uk.htm That page is slightly wrong, as there is some data coded in the header such as the RC-6 Mode. This page is an older version of the sbprojects.com RC-6 page, before the information on RC-6 Mode 6A was removed: http://slycontrol.ru/scr/kb/rc6.htm My personal opinion is that, for non-technical reasons, RC-6 Mode 6A decoding should not be included in the kernel. That's why I didn't do it for the HVR-1850/CX23888.
