 It would also allow you to combine say the RFGateway sketch using the Nanode hardware with the RF hardware and have the xap-serial message being dumped directly onto the Ethernet.  Many options available with these architecture choices. It would also allow you to combine say the RFGateway sketch using the Nanode hardware with the RF hardware and have the xap-serial message being dumped directly onto the Ethernet.  Many options available with these architecture choices.

 +<note>The RFRX library is part of the HAHCentral sketch so by attaching a RF receiver to this existing hardware you can get this functionality for very little extra cost.  Just the cost of a RF Rx unit, which is about 3-4 quid.</note>
  
 The beautiful part of this design is the separation of the signal gatherer from the decoder.  We look for a signal that has a lead-in >10ms and repeats more than once.   If this condition is met we emit the pulse stream for a repeating block out to the serial port for the decoder to deal with. The beautiful part of this design is the separation of the signal gatherer from the decoder.  We look for a signal that has a lead-in >10ms and repeats more than once.   If this condition is met we emit the pulse stream for a repeating block out to the serial port for the decoder to deal with.
