ummm... we're talking about radio frequency stuff... not radiation stuff...
this is quite common with devices that are not shielded properly...
especially microwave ovens ;)

ours does it here but doesn't override our wifi stuff... id does affect our
remote TVs that are fed via wireless and a few of our wireless phones but
this depends on the band they have selected...

anyway, there's my two centavos...
