Possibly - I cannot tell for sure, but it is possible to be nesar my door
without being seen.

Here is what I did:

(I installed the alarm myself.)
I contacted the UK group and told them about the matter. They informed
me that their keyfob has no protection against possible scanning, but the
signal is encrypted.

Hence I installed a codelock on my door and cut the alarm which I am now
going to sell. It was rather expensive, cost me about $ 500 altogether and
it goes for say $150. Used 6 months.

If I had known what I know now, I would not have bought a wireless alarm,
but a wired one ande served it from a wired codepanel inside the flat.
