The FCC Wants You To Know

Your receiver might cause radio or TV interference even when it is
operating properly.  To determine if your receiver is causing the
interference, turn off your receiver.  If the interference goes away,
your receiver is causing the interference.  Try to eliminate the
interference by:

    Moving your receiver away from the radio or TV.

    Connecting your receiver to an outlet that is on a different
    electrical circuit from the radio or TV.

    Contacting your local Radio Shack store for help.

If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop
using the receiver.
