Debugging X10 problems

Ah, X10 reliability strikes again... My X10 has started to behave
strangely. A couple of days ago we noticed that some lights were not
switching on or off while others were coming on at strange times. We
then got woken up the other night by one light in the bedroom coming
on at 3am...

I spent some time trying to locate the problem yesterday and am even
more confused now. One set of lamps will only turn on/off if I
disconnect my Squeezebox receiver - although it's been all working
fine together for 4 months now. My HomeVision unit is showing me that
the X10 signals are being sent and received but some lights are
obviously not getting the signal. It seems to be table/floor lamps
rather than ceiling lights. It's almost as if there is something
causing noise on part of the mains.

Anyone got any ideas or recommendations for things to try to track
this down?

Appreciated.

Andy.
