I tried this out.  It does not seem to break anything.  I can't say that
that it definitely fixed anything either, but it makes sense.  It is in
my local code so I'll let you know if I have any problems.  Until then,
I think it is a good change to make in your code.

I tried with X10_RF.pm.  I do not use X10_W800RF.pm because I'm not even
clear what benefit it would give me.
