Well as a radio comms and broadcast engineer I wonder why I have most
everything here wired rather than "Wireless"?..


Same here. Years of experience with radio mics. ;-) Only reason to use a
radio link is where it's impossible or inconvenient to use a cable - like
say with moving objects. None of this applies to an alarm. Or a doorbell.
