Reminds me of when I moved into a tiny town of only like 200 people. Way
out in the middle of No-where.
Only 1 Channel was able to be seen, Ch 3, and it required the largest
mono-channel optimized gain antenna available,
and with the strongest pre-amp available. and yet the signal in most
cases still was weak. Not a perfect picture, it had not snow so to
speak, but a grainyness to it. And this was if you were lucky.
I lived in a two story apartment on the second floor. It was a BIG building.
With like 12 foot high ceilings! The rooms tho only went up to say 8
feet, and there ws a suspended type ceiling to make the rooms file like
rooms and not a cubical place like in an office.
So the whole area above that suspended ceiling was open.
It was sooo large I was able to make a loop that was almost as big as a
full sized loop would be for 80 meters!
Si it was strung above that suspended ceiling, and I fed it with like 6
feet of 300 ohm TV twinlead. into a Johnson KW matchbox. Rig was an OLD
Drake TR-4.
The apartment was on the southeast corner of the town, and from my
window in the radio room I could see probably 75% of the houses.
At night you would see all the windows aglow with that bluish light of TV's
Then if I got on the air, I 100% destroyed every TV seen! It would flash
with my modulation and be totally un-watchable.
ALL OF THEM!
Because of the antenna being inside. No one ever knew it was me! he he he

It reminds me of a neighbor when I was a youth that complained about
interference from my station when I was in Europe with my parents. She
filed a complaint with the FCC without ever contacting me or my parents. We
provided info showing I was out of the country and the complaint was
dismissed. Our club had a TVI committee that contacted and helped resolve
TVI problems at no cost to the party being interfered with ( HP filters,
copper screening inside the TV, etc or LP filter at the station). They
would have fixed the problem had it existed.

It seems to me that the first step is to have (pay) an independent lab
measure the susceptibility of the pump and see if it meets the appropriate
standards for such a medical device as well as to measure the fields from
my radio station to see if they are compliant.
