What was updated Dave?

Just above the CM15A picture...

One user's range tests using an SH624 remote gave over 200' with a 1/2 wavelength (18") wire on the remote and a standard CM15A. He got 120' with a standard Sh624 and an 18" wire added to the CM15A.
You may need to reload the page as the earlier version might be in your browser's cache.

How much improvement could one expect - 1/2 wave vs the eggbeater?
I've never tested the maximum range of the eggbeater. In the only test I did, it was good at 300' but I did not go further. Also, I never tested with the eggbeater and a CM15A although I did test using the same type of RF receiver.

I've never been a fan of the CM15A. While the hardware was first-rate, X10's software was, IMHO, abominable.
