It appears that the protocol from the RCX transmitter
tower is not consistant, so OmniRemote can't always pin it down.  Just a
guess.
I don't have OmniRemote but this may help.
The normal RCX commands are not consistent. When you send the same command
repeatedly, the command is slightly different on alternate commands. In
other words the first time it sends "A" then "B" then back to "A"  then "B"
etc. Also, the RCX sends commands back to the Tower on normal commands. This
may also cause some confusion.

If you use the Remote Control commands you can get around all of these
problems. They are always the same and the RCX doesn't send a response.
