Re: X10 noise issue

[jim.mccroskey_at_dexmedia_dot_com@xxxxxxx (jmccros)]

Did you ever solve this. I am having exactly the same issue. At around
10am modules start reacting intermittently and it clears up around 7pm.
It is so bad that if I plug the controller into a wall module that is 1/2
controlled and the other 1/2 hot wired it would still not controll the
switched side of the module.
I believe this interferance must be coming from a nieghbors house.
Any thoughts?
