Re: [AMRadio] Part 15 Devices
Jim, File a complaint with the FCC. They are the folks that do the type acceptance. Their enforcement branch "should" deal with it. You can also cc Riley H.

Re: [AMRadio] Part 15 Devices
Well guys I put snap beads around the power cord (about 6 of them as I recall) and still hear it on several frequencies in the 75 meter band. It radiates as much as 50 ft. away and I don't think they should have that much. On top of that, the frequencies move when the state changes from off to on. Like all of you my house if full of these devices. My HP computer doesn't do this, my Canon multi-purpose printer doesn't do this, none of the kitchen appliances do it, the DVD player doesn't and neither does my electronic thermostat. All of which I can take a portable receiver and go near and hear them on the same frequencies with the TV unplugged. One leg of my 75 meter antenna is about 50 ft. away and the TV causes spurs that can be heard that far away. I know it isn't the satellite box and not the answering machine adjacent to it. Everything clears when I unplug the TV. It is the first TV I have ever had that radiates this much. Jim/W5JO How do you know it is out of compliance? There are measured radiation limits.

RE: [AMRadio] Part 15 Devices
File a complaint with the FCC, Jim. Since the tech for the manufacturer was so rude and refused to even discuss it with you they may know of the problem and just hope it will go away without complaint. If they are at fault, and it sure seems they are, maybe others have already filed complaints and yours will be the one that gets the FCC rolling.

Re: [AMRadio] Part 15 Devices
Beads over antenna cables and line cords only blocks common mode signals. RF can still flow thru line cords and into the house wiring or thru the coax into other equipment. Many years ago Doug DeMaw had a QST article on a brute force line filter that actually works well. Ive built several inside outlet strips and plug all sorts of offending equipment into them. I also use ferrite beads but not the snap on type which are 43 mix and fairly useless at low frequencies. A mixture of 77 and 43 mix beads that just slip over RG-6 work best for me followed by a good HPF on TV's, VCR's, DVD's etc. Line cords get wrapped on a 33 mix ferrite rod or you can use a 77 mix FT-240 size toroid. If the TV is radiating through a plastic cabinet you can line the inside with aluminum foil or spray on a conductive coating. Since I operate from 1.8 MHz thru 10 GHz I sorta got obsessive about RFI in both directions. It takes some time, effort and money to do it all.

Re: [AMRadio] Part 15 Devices
Thanks Jim: that is a real shame i remember when Zenith was top of the line. but like all the other US brands that is the word U.S. .made in the usa of asia and china.. i also bought a small one for the kitchen ill bring it in and see if the lines show up on it. i have a cable end set that i had at work. just have to dig it out of the boxes of tools i brought home when i retired. Yes everyone they were mine. hi hi.. put on a lot of F connectors . so i am going too redo all the F connectors with the good ones i brought from work nice water tight O ring units. have a new box of RG 6 also so guess ill just make up all new interconnect cables also. hope you can find your problems. put an ad in the paper and sell that one and get a new one.. let us know what you find good luck with the FCC. 73 Tony QBE ZUT DE WA4JQS ANTHONY W.
