          My front porch light has all of a sudden started doing something strange. Whenever I turn any other light

 |  in the house on or off, the front porch light blinks once or twice. Would this indicate a problem with the
 switch or with the PLM? Or something else? I did some raw captures to see if there were any clues. I turned
 my study light on and off a few times and captured the insteon traffic and the PH logs here.

 I don't see any traffic pointing to the front porch light, so it's like it never happened, but it is
 definitely blinking every time I do something.
 
 Any suggestions?

 Both times ended up being the switch itself and not the
 PLM.

          I also have lamp module 2672-222 Insteon LED doing the same thing. I'll do some trouble shooting and see if I can get closer to the issue.
