I think you are on the right track. A strong
electro-magnetic field from the amplifier.
Sometimes a shield (steel plate) between the source
and the monitor will eliminate the problem.
In my previous working life we used Mu-metal
shields between electro-magnetic souces and video monitors.
Distance is the least expensive cure (move the
monitor away from the amplifer).

Subject: [DX-CHAT] Hi Can anyone
help
Would like to write to any Hams who have owned and used the Yaesu FL2000
B Linear amplifier. I recently purchased one of these secondhand and despite
the age is in good working order. My only problem is that when the amplifier
is switched on, but in standby mode (not transmitting) I get bad picture
wobble (side to side) on my PC monitor (CRT type not LCD). Am not sure if
this is caused by the high electomagnetic field from the big power
transformer or interference from the two blower motors. Has anyone experienced
this and any ideas on effective suppression.
Thanks and 73 from G'Land
