This mechanism makes great sense to me. BTW -- THIS is my definition of 
"fundamental overload," and it was rejected by ARRL when I was asked to 
write a chapter on RFI for the Handbook more than ten years ago. Theirs 
dates back to the days of analog TV, when it was common for rigs to 
produce harmonics that caused TVI.
