John,

I can see I'm going to have to learn some terminology (SSR, HV?). I
don't see us doing too much with the lighting side. A few dimmers is
all the control we need, but maybe a couple of lights could be made
switchable for security purposes.

I did look up the DDAR on Automated Home and it looks like a great
bit of kit. It certainly looks cheaper than some other multi-room
systems.
