Default Gfci on a different circuit tripping when I turn tv on!

I have a gfci on one circuit that trips when I turn on a tv that is on
another circuit!

This only happens if I leave the tv off for exended period of time like 24
hours!

I can not repeat this if I simply turn the tv off and on repaleatedly!
And when I leave the
Tv off for 20 hours or so it does not always cause the gfci on the
different circuit to trip!

I replaced the tripping gfci with a new one and it changed nothing.

Also in heavy rain the tripping gfci does trip! It is a circuit with long
runs to outside lights and shed!


Also tripping gfci was once a circuit that had RF on it! This is 1940 BX
wiring!
