Yes, I seem to be the lucky one. It took me 3 tries to find the right placement - luckily I already have a lot of ML running through the house so I had some options that were not difficult to test.
I transmit from a shelf behind my BV8 in room on my first floor to a room directly above on the 2nd (maybe 10ft total distance). It's about 30ft away from my wireless base station and 20ft from microwave (and I believe my refridgerator does some shielding of the microwave at it stands in the path between microwave and wireless). Nobody can really walk between the transmitter and receiver (this was a problem in my first placement). There is sometimes some interference with my BeoCom1 (clicking in the background while talking), but this doesn't impact the wireless. My neighbors are far enough away that their wireless networks do not interfere (I can see 2 or 3 networks from my house, all with no more than 1 bar). The timer function is not 100% reliable - about once or twice a year, it will turn on (the lights on the speakers go green), but no audio is played - hence, I have a BS3 for backup (the BS3 predates the wireless).
I think the cheap construction of homes (wood and drywall) in the US tends to help, although even my dealer said they generally do not recommend the wireless as they usually "come back".
