We had a similar problem. The TV-sets manufactured in the 1950-1960's
had an IF-frequency of 21 MHz. Obviously we had to avoid working on the
15m, and to some extent 40m bands, since 7 MHz * 3 = 21 MHz.

Luckily, in those early TV days, they were not transmitting programs
24h/day, so we could operate ham radio outside TV-hours.
