Hi list, I tried to search for the outdoor sensor frequency from 
430 through 435 using my Vr500 Yaesu handheld receiver right next 
to the sensor and couldn't find it.  I was using the Fm mode so 
maybe I should try SSB or Am? Anyone have any suggestions? Gotta 
get my mind off my busted Tmv71a, Jim WA6EKS

First take the battery out of the main unit for a few seconds and 
then put
it back in.  Also try pressing the reset button in the outdoor 
unit.  Also
call Blind mice mart and they will be happy to work with you.

 Anybody have one of these from blind mice?  We, meaning my wife 
and I, =
 got one for Christmas and it all works fine except the outdoor 
probe.  =
 By that I mean, I put the batteries in and the main clock unit 
isn't =
 getting a signal, apparently, and it is good for 150 feet.  I 
have it =
 less than 10 feet away out the window.  Unfortunately, Blind 
Mice has a =
 14 day return policy so you don't get much time to test it when 
it was =
 saved a few days for a Christmas gift.  I just thought before 
trying to =
 return it, maybe somebody on this list has one and knows about 
the =
 probe.  I was a little concerned upon opening it at Christmas 
because =
 there were no instructions but even a blind man can figure this 
one out =
 so I'm wondering, the way it wasn't packaged, that is, not 
shrink =
 wrapped and no instructions, if it had already been returned 
once =
 before.  I bought a staple gun at a big hardware store once and 
when I =
 got it home, I could see the way the box was torn, it had at 
least been =
 opened and when I started using it, it wouldn't work right half 
the time =
 so I returned it and next time checked the packaging closer 
before =
 leaving the store.
