Sounds like the old days when I use to use a broadband linear amplifier on the 
CB radio and channels 3 and 5 would just go completely dark like the stations 
shut off.  Drove my mom nuts.

I do not know if it is actually analog or one of those desktop digital rabbit 
ears.  Have not inspected anything yet, just know that I can remotely disable 
the wireless on the RB-2011 and they say both TV's immediately clear up and 
work fine, re-enable the wireless (no change to ethernet or anything else) and 
both TV's go fuzzy and they start getting what they call "pauses" in both the 
video and sound.
