[RFI] Electric Dog Fences - What to Buy?

[Mike Fatchett W0MU]

We use the Petsafe brand underground fence.  I can't say I have ever 
detected it.  We use one in Montana and Colorado.  I don't know what 
frequencies they use but the signal unless you have the thing turned way 
up only radiates 5 to 10 feet from the wire.

I have been blessed with the good luck re contacting manufactures and obtaining from them info regarding  RFI.  Seems that most are aware of the problem and are willing to talk at least.
