Good point.  If it's the GFCI that's causing the problem, you may have to
look for another one since filtering it means you can't control any loads
beyond that point.  It's another reason why even a cheap X-10 meter is so
important to have if you're serious about X-10.  Once you can actually
*locate* signal suckers and noise generators, cleaning up an X-10 network
becomes ten times easier.
