You also need a TM751 or RR501 to receive the RF signals from the SS13.

Not really. The OP stated using AHP; the CM15A will work too.  ;)

The CM15 antenna is weak unless you modify it, which voids any warranty it may have.  My CM15 is less than ten feet from the SS13, and it will not pick up any RF signals, thus the use of a TM731 or RR501.

Not every one has problems with week reception Dan!
But a TM731 or RR501 may be needed to improve reliability! ;)

Not everone has problems with CM15 reception, this is true. Perhaps 5% of users find they work as advertized.

I don't know the exact figure but I would suspect very few people living in a house larger than 500 square feet not constructed from paper mache will have problems...
