just curious - whats the purpose of "Activate Signal Level:5" option?

why not disable that option all together?

A lot of playing around was done ... it looks like it was junk from testing. I just set it to 0 and it seems to work fine.

I changed it back to 5.

I tried it when I was at a meeting this morning away from the office ...
- When it was at 0 and I was away from my office both profiles reported active.
- When it was at 5 and I was away from my office only tlaOfficeFar was active.

(These are the most obscure profiles I have ever encountered.)
