    JS> Me either. It only seems to be an issue on 10m. As transmitting on any   
    JS> other HF bands doesn't appear to bother that TV at all.   
      
   In 1956 when I was in the 10th Grade, the High School had a Amateur Radio   
   Club.   
      
   Previous Students (and the Teacher) had built a Rack Mounted Kilowatt,   
   Plate Modulated Transmitter they used on 15 Meters.   
      
   The Final Amp had a pair of 810's in it.   
      
   In the Schools neighborhood was one family who had an older model Television   
   Set that had a 21.255 Mc. I.F. in it, and the School would get calls   
   on the telephone about TVI.   
      
   The Radio Room Teacher changed the Plug-In Coils in the rig to use it on   
   20M and after doing that the School didn't get any more TVI calls.
