Unfortunately, there's no definitive answer to that question. Since it doesn't have the narrow band transmitter, it may work reliably or intermittently. The only way to find out would be to try one.

FWIW:
We were told at a URC 3000 training that the way to know which transmitter you have in the 3000 is to check the USB connection.
The upgrade to Narrow Band came with the change to the mini-USB connection which is shared with the 900/950 units.

The manufacturing change occured in April 2005

You want to buy the 350 as it's the best choice of the 3. If by some cruel twist of fate you need a wideband antenna, you can always swap the RF-250 for a 150. It would be cheaper than having to upgrade from the 150 - 250 if you had issues.

Are you saying to swap the 250 receiver for the 150 receiver?

Is the 150 considered more reliable?

You need to pick the base station (300 or 350) based on the version of the 3000 remote you are programming.
If it's a narrow band 3000, manufactured after April 1 2005 with the new small USB port, then it supports the 250 antenna, so you'd buy a 350 base station as it comes with the 250 antenna.

If you have a 3000 that doesn't communicate via narrow band (large USB port) then you would substitute an MRF-150 antenna for the 250 if you already purchased the 350 base station, or you could just order a 300 base station since it ships with a 150 antenna.

The 350 base station with a 250 antenna is the best performing solution, but it only works if the 3000 is using a narrow band transmitter.
