[RFI] Samsung Computer Monitor an RFI Dog

[Mike Ryan]

I have a Samsung 8000 series 55" LED model...about 3 years old now.  Any RF 
from any hf source in the house or the car drives the set nuts. I was told 
that the rf comes in through some control panel related to the 'knobs' or 
adjustment panel to the lower right side of the set.  Not sure if that is 
correct but for sure, when I operate my wife has to go in another room to 
watch tv....the set in the living room is DONE.  - Mike

I use a 40" Samsung LED tv as a computer monitor, and have a 55" one for 
tv... neither one is bothered by the rf here, even with 1.5kw on 160m where 
they are in the middle of the pair of inverted L's.

I was concerned about that, but no problem for quite a few years.
