You need to raise this question on the RFI reflector. Also, study my RFI 
tutorial. It addresses many of the issues your friend is encountering.

Since RFI is way off topic on this reflector, and since I've gone into 
considerable detail in the tutorial, I'll stop here. BTW, I also wrote 
some stuff for the ARRL Handbook that includes detailed advice for 
chasing problems with CATV, but the in-house RFI guys didn't like it, so 
it hasn't been published. You might ask them to send it to you. 

Regards,

Jim
