I had a Samsung SyncMaster 24" which was very susceptible to RFI on
80M. It would turn off whenever I transmitted. The antenna is an
inverted Vee, less than 1 wavelength from the monitor. I was able to
stop this problem by wrapping 6 turns of the AC power cable around a
big clamp on ferrite. (T
I have received enough replies to report the trend. With one

the mid to major names such as Dell, LG, HP, Acer, ViewSonic, Planar,

Proximity to your AMP does not matter unless your amp is an un-shielded
piece of trash, which I doubt,. What matters is proximity to your ANTENNAS!
The only RFI issues I've seen from video monitors of any sort are RF
trash that THEY generate. A couple of y
