Hogan,

Nice history lesson.  I totally agree with your
final sentence.  Mine was Moose for various reasons
at the time.  Then Sentrol, when that went away
I had to make a decision.  I received a panel from
DSC, Ademco, ??? and Caddx.  I played them for a while
and decided on the Caddx/Networx.  All part of history.

As for the wireless, yes some had their quirks.  They
are better now.  The challenge is trying to find the
reason for a weird reaction of stuff you can't see.

As was the case last October as I noted in my thread here
on ASA:  "Extreme RF Noise source locating"

Still have no clue as to what that was all about and
all has been good since.

Later,
