Actually I dont know what the problem is. I think that RF interference is a problem but with both of the interfering units powered off the URC still doesnt perform very well. the sweet spot just seems to never be in the same spot twice.
When I first purchased this pair the performance was nearly magic, I swear that there was not a single glitch in 2-3 years, now nothing but problems.
Is there a better unit that is more reliable?
One of the problems is that when URC originally designed that remote many of the products on the market didn't come in cheap plastic cases with built in Wi-Fi or have their own proprietary RF remotes. The result is a lot of interference. A good example is a lot of the Sony Blu-Ray players.
The other issue is that their less expensive lines of remotes and base stations have always had a lot more issues with rf interference. In my experience it's been any of the ones with the built in rf antennas.
My recommendations would be what I listed in my second and third responses.
