DAK in Chatsworth, CA sells it. J&R Music in New York City sells it. Radio Shack has X-10 stuff and maybe sells this. It's cheap. There is Mac software to download your timing settings into it, and the software is actually quite good, and it even runs on a color IIci. You can call X-10 USA at 800-526-0027 for more information and they can also send you a catalog of other X-10 products. Other X-10 stuff: 800-824-5003 Leviton Decora Electronic Controls 800-521-5262 Stanley Lightmaker 800-253-0570 Heath X-10 is nifty. --dave yost
