I am not going to say that I was surprised by the post concerning problems,
but I just haven't seen them.With as many DSC panels as we have out there
and going through 6 hurricanes in the last two years with no problems, I
want to know if there is a time laiden problem with this product. Remember
the old Moose 911? It started to sporadically loose its programming after
about 10 years. On the wireless side of DSC, have you tried that new
receiver adaptor, connecting the 900 and 433 Mhz devices, yet?
