Joe,

Am I willing to pay more for a clean RF environment, yes! I would happily pay $600/year for a clean RF spectrum.

The problem is filtering devices stop very little, no matter what the quality when used at the receiving site. Why? Filtering the RF at the receiving end simply does not work in most cases.

If I can't get to the devices causing the issues, then I can't filter them, and if I can get to the device, then there is the liability issue afterwards...

So to answer your original question, yes, if my bill were to go up, I would be fine. As I mentioned, upthread, fine hell out of the offenders, the vendors, and the manufacturers, and the problem would be reduced greatly. Charge them for the location and time involved, plus a hefty fine per occurrence.

In general start throwing far more roadblocks to the sale, and use of EMI emitting devices then there are currently.

73, and thanks,

But Dave,
Are you willing to allow your government/power supplier to add 10% to your bill 
*every* month to accomplish this?  At my location, that would add, on average, 
$50.00 a month, that is *$600*a year!, so that I don't get interference in 
anything I own?
Decent filtering devices cost a lot less money!

I am for ANYTHING legal that puts the breaks on uncontrolled EMI.  It is
getting completely out of hand in the US right now...  At least in the
Northwest...
