Uh, the line cord on that amp was probably a bit longer than 10 cm, huh?

If the manufacturer didn't give a ****e about keeping the rf leakage down,
then
the amp could have been lighting up the house's whole electrical
distribution
system with rf. Odds are that's what the cable company picked up.

I just didnt' think a system could be so badly designed that the signal path
interferes with the power supply. in that case yes, there's an antenna in
there, bu the fix is simple: get an amp that is not complete ****.
