re AM interference -

Yesterday I was booting up my IIsi with a SVGA LCD monitor. Another PC nearby was attached to an external audio amplifier. During the IIsi boot period, I was getting a clear signal from a local AM station showing up on the PC-attached audio. When the IIsi display stabilised on the SVGA monitor, the signal disappeared. I'm guessing that the VGA cable was acting as some kind of retransmitter, with the length of that cable coincidentally matching the AM station bandwidth. Strange that there was no connection between the Mac and the PC, but the signal was retransmitted.
