RE: X-10 --> RF (not dry contact switching)

[<mkanet@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for all the feedback!  There was a good reason why I asked about
X-10---->RF instead of dry contact exposure switching meant only for my
garage.

My garage door is controlled with an RF remote.  But, I also have several
other devices in the house which use RF remotes; such as the remote control
(key chain remote) which will arm / disarm the house alarm; or controlling
central air conditioner/heating thermostat, or even turn my car on in the
mornings with my car alarm remote.

Is there a simple and cheap device which will learn and send RF remote
control signals which and can be triggered by x-10 commands?  I already
have
a similar device which convert x-10-->IR (prelearned commands).

Thanks in advance!
Michael

Something like the X10 Universal Module connected directly to
something on the Garage door opener?....
