dying interface

Wed Jun 1 12:41:48 EDT 2022

Haven't seen anything in the list for quite a while - not sure what's up
with that.
But, I did find an X10 ActiveHome Pro Computer Interface Module (CM15A) on
eBay and bought that today
to replace my more and more intermittent CM11. Not sure what my other
options are for a pretty much exclusive X10 set of lamp modules around the
house.

I should know more when it arrives next week.
