Your problem is that the $1 only grabs the first element of the list (as it should). To send the entire list try using [tosymbol] or [prepend /OSC_SendArray] instead.

Thanks very much, that has got it working great.

I would highly recommend using the prepend solution. Basically your problem is just to format the list (have a look to zl objects). tosymbol will generate symbols which are not freed until you quit Max so if you're generating tons of symbols this could cause problems.
