This is so off the mark I don't know where to start. A tiny neon bulb at the end of its life acts as a fantastically good RF transmitter. It's consuming almost no power but broadcasting RF rubbish which can interfere with TV, Radio etc. Obviously you must be lucky enough to have your gear inside a Faraday cage...(not). -- Phil Leigh ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Phil Leigh's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=85 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34749 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
