 everyone was correct, this item has changed November 15, 2009
mark twain (st. louis, mo United States)
I've had a reporter since '04. Worked flawlessly at 300' through window. Had the lexan cover/ lens crack due to UV. Took a gamble since many folks did say since chamberlain took over the range diminished. And they are correct. Same distance and this new unit won't pick it up reliably. Ended up taking the circuit board out of the old one and placing it in the new housing.
Wish I could find a true electronics guy to discern the difference between the 2 boards. They are identical in size and lay out- just the new range-challenged unit has less diodes in places.
My next purchase will be a Dakota or rodann unit. Shame on chamberlain- ruined a perfectly good product again.
 Wireless Alert System November 14, 2009
Bonnie L. Boiani (Georgia)
It works very well. It gives a real sense of security and was easy to
set up. Does not pick up deer or turkey so it is not annoying! We
are very happy with this roadway protection. Would recommend to anyone
in an isolated area.
 Not as good as the older versions November 8, 2009

We have purchased these in the past and they have worked very well. The new ones do not have the range of the old model. They used to be one of the best and now I will not purchase this item again. Return to Amazon. Made in China now????
Great alarm! Peace of mind!!! November 4, 2009
B. Vinyard (Loranger, LA USA)
I have my business in front of our home. About a month ago someone pulled into my shop's parking lot (while we were at our home) and stole our dog, (who is our life). Thanks to many prayers, we found her the next day. When I am in my shop, I can hear when someone pulls up. But in my home, I can't. One of my customers told me about this driveway alarm. Now anytime someone pulls in our driveway, the alarm buzzes in our home. This is wonderful for security!! And also for those customers that come after hours or on weekends!! The Chamberlain alert system gives us peace of mind knowing that no one can sneak up to our property again!!!
Range much less than advertised November 3, 2009
D. Morrison (Alabama)
I find the working range to be about 100 ft or less, and the antenna wires have to be pointing at each other and no where near any metal. It does not work as advertised. I've tried all the settings and new batteries. Not satisfied.
