I used mine again this weekend. Cursed at it many times as it lost the signal or didn't update. I had it parked 25 feet away outdoord and was sitting happy in the shade with the temp. on target...I wandered over to the bullet to find the temps spiked a bit and the receiver didn't update. I have 2 complete thermometers and 3 receivers (I purchased 1 and Maverick sent the rest trying to correct the problem). Seems my house wood with vinyl siding) will not always allow the signal to enter, even though a window with the cooker in sight. Maybe I should call a priest for an exorcism on the house and thermometer ! Or if they sell a 100 foot of probe wire and I could walk around dragging this spool of wire. LOL

I am having the same problem. I ordered the ET-73 from Thegadgetsource and they were very good at sending out a new unit the same day. Unfortunately it was worse than the first one. They are sending out a third one this week. I can't get it to update 25 feet away. If I go to the window and put it right in the window it will update, sometimes. Maverick agreed to send out a new receiver if I want. That will be the next step if the third one still does not work.
Anyone know of any other unit that does the same thing but that really works?
I don't care if is more expensive.
