Thanks,Chip; that does make sense. We will have a reader tonight, too, so I can ask her about the 3-position switch as well and find another simpler one for another room.

Maybe since you bought it from Radio Shack, you could take it back to one, and some there would be willing to program it; programming it is only entering one number as I recall (I think you look up your location on a web site to get the number).
