I run up to a kilowatt here on 80 thru 10 and my shack TV is about 4 feet from 
the amp.  I have no TVI.  I would try to help the neighbor out if they are 
cooperative.  Check all connections on their TV and try some snap-on cores, if 
they work then have them pay for the cores.  It is most likely their TV or 
associated wiring, or the cable box.  Good luck
