Can someone help me find the source of the strange information (see below) in the activity monitor.
You will not that the Receive B Bright 5 % repeats every minute and six time every Minuit starting at 26 seconds.
What could be sending this signal???

Don't have a remote sitting around somewhere with something pressing down on the button? Or maybe a remote with a button stuck down?
It's happened before! Someone had one in a packing box with the batteries in it and couldn't figure out where these commands were comming from until they realized they had jostled the box and something fell on the remote and was holding a button down!

On some of the older manual controllers, the keypad would fail in a way that would cause the controller to send out a continuous stream of commands.
Also, do you happen to have a phase coupler or other type of repeater? Sometimes they get confused, and see an X10 command, repeat it, see their own repeat, re-repeat it again, see their own repeated repeat, re-re-repeat it again, etc.

The fact that the signal occurs only 6 times and then doesn't repeat again until a minute later would seem to eliminate a stuck key on a remote from consideration. I'd suspect it is rather due to some hangup in the CM15A.
Try clearing the EEPROM memory. If that doesn't help, unplug the CM15A, remove the batteries (one will do since they're all in series), replace the battery and plug up again.
