[RFI] Variable speed drives

[Alan Robinson]

Several months ago we bought a GE Profile Harmony washer, model WPGT9360E. 
It is a high efficiency top loader. We really like the washer. Does a great 
job with low water/energy use. But it is an astonishing RFI generator. 
Completely wipes out 80 meters. Also effects 40m and 20m. I don't hear above 
that.

Anyone know how to cure it? I just don't operate when the washing machine is 
running.

Alan, W4LKE
