Has anyone ever hear of something like this? Does it sound like
defective oven? How to fix???

My neighbor just had a set of new garage door openers installed. The
remotes didn't work. Installer couldn't figure it out. Gave up and
removed openers.

Second guy with different openers had same problem but finally traced
it to the Kitchen Aid Superba gas oven (NOT microwave) since
everything works fine once the oven is unplugged. I THINK the oven
is on a different circuit than the openers. It seems to be putting
out some frequency that is jamming the remotes. The oven does not
have to be on to jam, just plugged it. Installer says he's never
seen a problem like it.

What could cause an oven to do this???

Thanks for any comments or suggestions.

Oh another thing came to mind, make sure the oven is properly grounded.
