Very interesting -- my generic 15" LCD monitor is completely quiet at HF, so far as I can tell, but today, I was listening to FM radio on a little clock radio. We are in a fringe area, so the signal wasn't very strong, but it was full quieting.

When I connected the signal cable to the monitor, semi-white-noise interference could be heard on the radio. Power down the monitor or shut down the computer, and the noise goes away, so I presume it is related to the minotor itself, rather than to the power supply.

This really isn't a problem for me, since I don't operate VHF, but I thought others might want to know. The monitor is a LiquidVideo, sold by Circuit City stores.
