I know you can use multiple anttenas with the new T2+ and RF unit. Has anyone out there put a bunch of them through-out an entire house (during prewire) so that the remote can be used all over the house? Any reason why this shouldn't work?

No should work fine, but you should not need a whole bunch of antennas, You might even get away with 1 antenna at each end of the house and one in the middle. I have never had to use more that 2 antennas my self, but, You can use up to 10 of the 433 antenna modules with one RP-6

and to not exceed 1000' of wire in total length. I just did a few remotes in a large house...30,000sq ft and had no trouble in each area was at most 75 ft from each area. we will be adding 5 more T1's and RP-6's to the house and each will be for its own area but was amazed at the range we got..eve with the RP-6's and antennas next to the equipment areas

There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure you are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far.
