Default Re: (Another) MW/LW interference problem

Complain to Ofcom.

I complained to Comreg and it took a YEAR. Faulty SMPSU in next door's HDTV.

There is NO in market validation that products meet CE. What is imported often has less or no filtering compared to what was submitted for CE test. The main culprit is National Regulators only interested in collecting revenue from Telecoms operators, not the EU.

There is though an issue with how power line Ethernet and PSUs /Ballasts on LED and CFL lamps are tested. Also self certification.

Could be anything from a Cattle Fencer to a satellite box SMPSU using the external coax to radiate.

Or even the car electronics. The Electronics on my 2008 Diesel car generates more RFI making R4LW barely usable than the ignition did on my 2000 Petrol car!
