Rant: Tried a new wireless sensor in a brick building and got a false alarm every night

Put a new brand, SecureLink, in a brick apartment block in Philly. The signal kept dropping at the same time each night, setting off the panel. Turns out a city bus parked right outside and its engine block killed the signal. Anyone know a good wireless repeater that can handle that kind of interference?

Saw a forum post about using a metal mesh shield for that exact bus interference problem.

Ever think about just moving the sensor to a different wall?

Seriously, moving it just hides the real wiring problem.
