Re: Wireless Doorbell With Multiple Receivers?



Hi,

Instead of relying on wireless to get thru walls and all kinds of obstacles
that may be in a commercial building and getting spotty coverage, you could
consider using chimes that use the existing electrical wiring, such as the
old X10 used to do; you would need to stay with the same 'leg' of the
electrical system though, or you could rig your doorbell switch to relay to
a second transmitter on the second 'leg' of the electrical system.

Also, since you may have an extensive phone system in the building, look for
a lonely, never used, and forgotten pair of wire in that Telco system just
waiting for the day to feel useful. You only need one pair to send a signal.
Additionally, if you know how, you can send 2 signals in one wire for
different reasons using different frequencies. But that's the advanced
class.

And then, how about the ceiling above you. You might be pleasantly surprised
to find wiring available.
Just a thought.
