I have two wireless thermometers. Every time I turn on the one for the
barbeque, the other one gets screwed up (hard reset needed). Even though
they are on seperate channels. So I would consider interference as a
possible cause of your problem too.

I have an Oregon Scientific wireless thermometer/hygrometer. It
basically quit working back in october, and what passes for tech support
at the company told me to take the batteries out for 24 hours ("hard
reset"). I did this and it has worked for however many months it is from
October to now, but has quit again (no communication with the remote
unit).

Have other people had trouble with these products? Oregon Scientific has
several models but I think that they are all pretty much identical at
bottom, just a different selection of bells and whistles. If you have
had trouble, have you figured out a resolution? the damned thing cost
like $60, and it ****es me off that it doesn't even last two years
without problems. I'm trying the "hard reset" trick again.
Hi,
If remote unit has battery, cold/humid weather is hard on it.
Maybe time for another reset with fresh battery. I'd try Li-Ion
battery.(there are rechargeable ones as well).
