[RFI] LCD Monitors

Hi Mike,

I have three LCD monitors in my station: A 19 inch ViewSonic, a 17 inch NEC, 
and a 15 inch Mitsubishi. None make any RFI that I can detect. Also, I have 
a 32 inch Panasonic LCD TV. It also is quiet.

BUT, I also have a 50 inch Panasonic plasma HDTV. It is an amazing RFI 
generator. It tears up 80 meters to an extraordinary level. Also, it puts 
out RFI on the broadcast band on certain frequencies; 1160 kHz, for example. 
Surprisingly, I don't hear it on 10 meters.

If anyone know how to quiet down a plama TV, I would really like to hear 
about it.

73,

Alan, W4LKE
