You are, of course, absolutely correct Jim. Know that one model of the sat
receiver uses an RF remote of some sort that many think is the culprit.

Sadly the response from the, understandably RF clueless, sat help lines is
kind of like going to a doctor with the plea "it hurts to do this" and
response of "well don't do that."

I suspect nothing will change much until a 40m signal affects the sat
systems of the ham's neighbors resulting in a Part 15/97 brawl.
