There are two RFI problem at my house ...  a set of computer speakers my 
wife uses on a TV upstairs likes a couple of 20 meter frequencies.   And 
a couple of frequencies on 40 meters turns on just one sector of my 
underground sprinkling system.   Out by the mail box.   Only runs when I 
transmit...
Coiling the speaker cables seems to have changed them from being 
antennas, but the sprinkler system is still an enigma.  I am still 
working that.
