[RFI] Samsung isn't completely RF quiet

[Mel Crichton]

Just to reiterate my comments from 2 years ago... Samsung high-end 
energy-efficient super-(audio) quiet refrigerator creates extremely strong 
RFI every 5 KHz.....it's from the compressor, not the display...

No help from Samsung USA... Claimed to have no idea of the problem... they 
said "Sorry we can't help"...

Common and differential node chokes applied INSIDE the casing, but only 
reduced the hash between the RF spurs a little. To operate radio I must kill 
the power at the breaker....

So I continue to badmouth Samsung until they notice a drop-off in sales.... 
won't buy another Samsung product until they come up with a fix for the 
refrigerator....

We can't count on congress or FCC to act on this issue.... If we hams had a 
"blacklist" of RFI generators and refused to buy those product lines, maybe 
the manufacturers would notice a slight drop in sales and ask why...

Maybe
