Which other RF receiver do you have? An X10 unit? Which one?

I'm trying to get an overall picture of how the various remote receivers handle their signals.

Ideally I'd just get on that could be retuned to the 430MHz signal the 15-2117 remotes send. That'd be the simplest way to make it all work.

Alas it's not going to be that easy. The way the ur47a enables the RF board is different than the 15-2117. The UR47a seems to just pull an ENable line high and send away. The 15-2117 appears to keep the RF on for all signals.

I can't devote the time to figure it out just now but the schematics for both of them are online as PDFs from the FCC:
