[RFI] Starlink = No RFI Here

[Steve Dyer W1SRD]

Not sure which Starlink terminal Jim has, but I have a less than 1 year 
old "square" dish and no issues emitting or receiving RFI. It's right 
under the beams on the roof so it gets the full 1.5 kW from 50' away.
The service has been outstanding from a reliability perspective.
73,
