[BC] Sine Remote with AT&T Cellular now working

[KKTY]

Been there, done that. Lots of comments on this thread about antennas & 
signal strength... but I'd guess that's not the primary problem. This is a 
known issue with Tellular phones interfacing with Sine Systems. Tellular 
told me up front when I was shopping that their boxes do NOT pass CDMA DTMF 
well. They were very straight-up with me, said it might work, it might not 
work. Talked with sales/tech people who were familiar with Sine Systems and 
b'cast remote control.

I bought the Tellular anyway, and have found that it works ok, sometimes. 
Usually always works ok when we call from the station phones, although is 
doesn't recognize dtmf #6 very well & we have to double punch. I should move 
that function to another tone. It does NOT like my cell phone (HTC 
smartphone), and doesn't usually play well when I dial from cell.

My cells and my Tellular are all on Alltel, which I understand is going to 
AT&T by the end of the year.
