I also forgot, because its been sitting next to the cm11 in one of those tripple wide duplex adaptors for years, is a receiver for the rf output signals from the eagleeye or hawkeye PIR motion detectors. Its a X10 Powerhouse RR501. This device also picks up the handheld keypad signals, so I can fire up xmms, make it play, and even hit the reject to make it go to the next song when I'm in the basement playing pool with the neighbors. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
