thanks Tom and Curt these tips did the trick. I should have caught on to the 
fact that i didnt have a passcode set sooner, for some reason i totally over 
looked that one.

the allow transmitting was checked and i didnt have the word filter in the 
filter box (although i had wondered if i needed it but quickly talked myself 
out of that one)

i now have the port set back to 14580 and the range set to m/160 and all is 
well.
