Gerry: While I have found the Dell boxes to be relatively RF quiet, you
have the RFI issue backwards. The residential standards (Class B devices)
are much more strict than office/industrial (Class A device) standards, the
logic is there is a greater likelihood of RFI in a residential
environment. So when in Home Depot buying florescent fixtures for the
shack, avoid the ones marked --"Commercial"!. --73, Mike, WV2ZOW
