1:  My rx unit is powered by 12v dc

So is Xantech but, IIRC, it's a bit fussy.

Had I done in the first place what I should have and read the site I
would have known that and seen that it looks not to be compatible.
However after scouring the posts I found the url and have now read up
on
it.

Yup I got that, eventually.

The one good thing about the Xantech stuff is that it is *very*
discrete.

TBH, I can't remember I only toyed with it for a short time and then
ditched the idea, from memory I would have needed a different
distribution block for each zone to use the kit I have, but I honestly
cannot remember so I simply configured the Pronto in each area to cope
and HV generally. It works fine but in some ways can be a bit of a pain
at times.
