You could probably do a whole lot better by picking up a cheap ATA, such as an Obi-100 or Ooma, then using Google Voice which is free and includes unlimited free domestic long distance. -- Char Jackson |

That doesn't sound very appetizing to me. Hanbury Brown had a similar problem with birds in the Outback. His solution was to wrap the cables in roofing felt. YMMV.

Are you comparing teaser rates to normal rates? AT&T was about the same price as DTV but includes Internet. DSL was more than $50/mo and while neither is perfectly reliable, the fiber is better and 50x faster than DSL. |
| "pfjw@aol.com" <pfjw@aol.com>: Oct 06 08:28AM -0700 Now, I know that most of us here are best described as "tight" with the pennies, holding on until either Abe or the good Queen howls. However, as I mentioned most gas log makers source from generic suppliers - and here is one: http://www.hearthsidedistributors.com/Catalog/Skytech-Fireplace-Remote-Controls Somewhere on that device will be either a manufacturer, serial or model number. So, you might be able to call the maker and get how to adjust the sender, or replace the sender entirely. Or replace the sender and receiver entirely. Given how stubborn I am, writing for myself, I would try to work it out with the resources already in hand. BTW: 01110111 = 119 in binary. 00111110 = 62 They both have 8 digits. About all they share. http://www.binaryhexconverter.com/binary-to-decimal-converter Are you sure that the receiver is active and receiving? Best of luck with this - I just cleaned out our gas-log preparing for winter. Peter Wieck Melrose Park, PA |
