Q. What RF levels will impact RF operations?
A. Factors that can cause RF interference vary case-by-case. There are no set rules defining a single
RF level that will cause RFI. RFI depends on the sensitivity of the equipment under consideration, or
how low an interpreting signal can be in the presence of the equipment and cause problems.
Equipment can be particularly sensitive to very low signal levels of one frequency and yet be quite
immune to high signal levels of another frequency - so frequency is an important factor. Some
electronic system components are internally shielded and have a very high immunity to interference;
but generally, most equipment has not been so engineered.
