I have a Sony Wega 20" in the room adjacent to the computer/radio room. The
interference generated by this tv being turned on (my wife watches it all

bands (7 & 9 mhz on my Icom R71A receiver and longwire antenna. What
exactly did you mean when you said you installed a "powerstrip" behind the

the wall outlet directly vs into the surge protector outlet strip does not
affect the massive amount of rfi it generates on the aforementioned bands
(wipes them out completely). Any suggestions? Please define what you mean
by "powerstrip behind the tv." Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

television does seem to put out more RFI than the one it replaced, but
it's not a problem because of the antenna system I use. Here's why:
