This is NOT correct. CONDUCTED emissions are the primary cause of RFI at 
all frequencies, but especially below 30 MHz, through a mechanism first 
identified in the world of pro audio as "The Pin One Problem," whereby 
cable shields are improperly terminated to the circuit board rather than 
to the shielding enclosure. The same error is also quite common with the 
Green Wire for power wiring.
