Modded or not, I *think* it's up to the radio operator NOT to interfere with
his/her neighbors.

I look at it this way;
If your cordless phone was making my garage door go up and down all night,
I'd expect YOU to remedy that situation.

I had a situation once where I was broadcasting through a next door
neighbors, well, let's just say a "type of piano you find in a church"
because I can't think of how to word it without it coming out wrong:-) That
was about 20 years ago when I was running 750 watts through stacked
moonraker IV's. I tried installing filters every where I could plug one in
but to no avail. So I stopped running the linear and all was well....it was
just a cheap splatter box anyway. We moved and I sold everything.

We actually just stopped in to see them a few months ago and she still has
and plays that "type of piano you find in a church" :-)

But wouldn't the CB device op be required to make changes? He's the one
causing the interferance. My memory of such things is quite dusty.

The part 15 device is the bottom of the food chain.
It is required to accept any and all interference, including that which
may cause undesired operation.

This assumes that the other device is either part 15, or unmodified CB, or
commercial licenced radio (unmodified), or ham radio operating in-spec.

If I read them right, a modded CB, or one with an amp, or a ham radio that
was operating out of spec, would be given the burden of cleaning up the
problem.
If you're operating illegally, then you go below the part 15 devices.
