Well said, Bob, and those are exactly the issues.
How is this different from the guy next door with a Plasma TV or grow
lights? Certainly in one respect -- your neighbor can plead ignorance,
but by virtue of our licenses, we are required to know better!

Folks, we aren't trying to crucify any brand or model. Just trying

that many radios aren't really "clean" when they transmit. While
that doesn't bother the operator for he's transmitting, but what about
the ham a couple of blocks away? He may be affected by broadband
noise when he is on one band the other station is on another. Or you
could be that other ham that has the noise floor increase when the
other station is on the air.
