N2 - Some short-wave transmitters (≤ 1-kW output power, 1.8 to 30 MHz) are located in high-density populations. There is often interference between these transmitters and consumer electronics. The authors review existing measurement data for this type of situation and present a case study including experiment and theory for a typical short-wave transmitter station (amateur radio service). It is concluded that proposed standards (prEN 55020), which require that home electronics be capable of withstanding disturbing fields up to 1.75 V/m (0.15 to 150 MHz), are far too low. Some guidelines for the installation of short-wave antenna systems in densely populated areas are given. It is noted that values of 3 V/m/10 V/m/32 V/m (low/medium/high exposure) from 1.8 to 30 MHz seem to be highly desirable for lowering the amount of unnecessary RFI (radio-frequency interference) complaints about malfunctioning home electronic entertainment devices throughout the world.
