Maybe you have a signal strength issue also, but I don't see how lack of
signal strength creates random commands to turn on. This would only be true
if a command occurred at that time but was misinterpreted due to insufficient
signal.
Otherwise, random turn-on should be the result of noise (or interference by a
neighbor's X-10).
Random FAILURE to turn-on could be due to insufficien signal strength.
