Nothing unusual; an HAI transmitter, and a mix of switches and outlets from
PCS and Leviton.

Thanks for the suggestion, I think I'll try out the device you mentioned,
along with some filters on the UPSs and surge protectors.  Hopefully the
combo will get me back to 100% as the house has grown to 60 or so devices,
so we've gotten quite used to it all working.

thanks again,

Chip
