Hi George,

Many years ago, I saw what I considered solid input that these devices 
are not sensitive to RF at frequencies we use. The laws of physics 
support that -- RFI is coupled either by by antenna action or a magnetic 
field. Devices like this are far too small for there to me much of 
either, and proper design requires that their construction reject both 
means of coupling by their construction.
