I know X-10 is transmitted via the power line! My question is whether the RF signal put out by the powermid when it receives an X-10 IR command is the same signal that would be put out by a standard X-10 capable RF remote? If so then the little RF receivers throughout the house can pick up the signal from the powermid and turn it into the X-10 power signal.

As for the wiring issue... I just assumed that the X-10 signal could not travel across a breaker. Is that not true? Basically I've got a couple lights in the living room and one in each of two bedrooms controlled via X-10. The only way I could get it to work with the standard RF remote was to give each room it's own receiver. Is that not how it's suppose to work?
