Ginger, you might want to do a little research and see if anyone who has one who lives near him can tell you how it comes in--I've heard that sometimes, one or the other (or both) may nto have the greatest reception, in a place.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Hey this is an unconventional one: I installed a new Honeywell thermostat today, and I don't think I'm getting heat, so clearly I've installed it wrong.
The pilot light is on; the electrical leads into the thermostat are making contact, and the thing does have functional batteries.
The only thing I can think of is that I've got the wires backwards (currently black = Rh; white = W), but that's how it was labeled in the old thermostat, so I don't think so.
Any ideas? All my Googling has told me is that Honeywell is a British company.

All is well that ends in pizza.
The Honeywell manual should have instructions on which type of other thermostat connections translate to where on the Honeywell one.
I know my Hunter™ thermostat did.
OTOH? I also have four wires, I assume two were for A/C, so...

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
It's got nice diagrams of what to do with 2, 3, 4, or 5 wires; and I did what the diagram said. Like I said, I'm pretty sure I have the right wires in the right holes; but I've re-fiddled with them twice to make sure they're making contact, and still no heat. So, I'm grasping at straws.
I really don't want to have to go back and re-install the old one, not least because I spackled over the old screw holes.

I guess I would check the furnace end to see if they have the wires hooked up correctely there, or as you siad, swap the wires.
OTOH? try setting the thermostat to some obscenely high number, like 80 degrees.
It's sometimes the little obvious things that get me. What are the switches/settings set at? (I'm assuming that it's set ot "On" or "Heat"...)

The furnace was fine till I took off the old thermostat, so I'm assuming the problem is up here, not in the basement. I tried setting it to 75, and am having no luck. I'll go back through the obvious things again, but I think I covered all of them.
So. Frustating.
