Lesson to all... I can stand on my hind legs and claim that the most
persistent and maddening of all problems that have been discussed on
this list over the past 12 years...

"Oops...I forgot that little thing..."

But anyone who has been following this thread, and doesn't see the
resolution of it, will claim that this is another reason why X10
is 'unreliable'...

My claim is that NO technology can suffer ANY kind of disturbance.

A level playing field is required for all ...

VERY glad that you found this thing. It could have been that you
spent a lot of money and time switching to a new technology, and
then some day (after wrestling with that technology), you move the
bed and discover OH !!!

good on you
michael
