BSR is the old name for X-10 USA, Inc., whose stuff is remarketed
by Radio Shack as Plug-n-Power, and by Stanley and Leviton and so on.
Andrew, I'm sending you a summary of the X-10 protocol by e-mail, as well
as info on how to get more info from the intelhouse archive server.
(Intelhouse meaning Intelligent House, not related to Intel)
