Gee. What a nice fellow. I wouldn't have been so nice...in fact, in a similar
situation, I wasn't...

Good. Whoever encouraged him to do that has my complete agreement.
The squeeky wheel gets the grease.
I had to tell my neighbors, repeatedly, that I was completely in compliance
with all laws. I had to print off that notice that is usually included with some
sorts of entertainment equipment which says, "This equipment must accept
interference...." and give them several copies.
When they threatened to call the F.C.C. I told them to, by all means, please
do that. I also gave my neighbors the telephone numbers to the F.C.C. and
encouraged them to call them.
Eventually, most issues were resolved when the main complainant got a
NEW set of computer speakers. Her old ones were outputing signals from
me even when they were turned off and unplugged...and I kid you not.
