I have a neighbor who is fully licensed by the FCC to operate a short wave radio (or whichever is necessary to reach international destinations). He's broadcasting @ 28MHz (7-28MHz)
He's had his antennae up for about a year and I've never experienced interference until we lost powerLast for over 15 hours. Out of the blue the next weekend I began picking up his calls through my TV...very loudly. I have a Comcast digital converter with wired cable (not wi-fi) I went to let him know and he said it wasn't happening to his own TV's. He thinks it's my old TV.
I have an old, fully functioning, RCA Entertainment Series model analog V, which I'm pretty sure it's over 10 years old. I unplugged the TV and put it in a different receptacle and he also suggested I tighten up all my cable connections, which I did. I have other analog TV's and it wasn't coming through any of them.
Once I did that, the interference went almost down to '0'. You would have to stand up and put your ear on the TV to hear anything.
Then the next day Sunday, it began again...very loudly at first and then somewhat lower, but still loud enough to interfere with my TV viewing.
When I went to let him know, he said he would contact the FCC to see what their recommendation would be - they told him (and myself when I called) that I needed a High Pass filter. I purchased one but it didn't work. Would you have any recommendations?
