I have a smaller LG TV in my radio room.  I can turn it on or off with just
10-watts or a bit less as long as an antenna of any kind is connected to
the TV (even an 18" cliplead) .  No antenna, no problem - but, of course,
no TV.   This LG TV is about 8 years old, but is "digital".  We have a Sony
which is a bit larger in the kitchen and a large 65" Sony downstairs in the
"TV room".  Neither of those are bothered at all with my activities in the
radio room.  So, on my small sample, yes, LG is more sensitive to RF fields
than the Sony TVs.
