Re: [PVRC] Finding a WiFi router hardened against RF

I have a FIOS Version router about 4 feet from my 1200 watt Ameritron Amp and antenna feed lines.  Router is  about two years old. I have not had any issues, either receiving or transmitting.

That's nice, but not very meaningful. Unless your amplifier is a badly
shielded mess (unlikely) and your feedline is radiating like mad, what
matters is proximity to ANTENNAS, and their directional patterns (that
is, are they close to, or pointed at, the router).

I can confirm this in spades.  1,200 W to a tribander on a 70' tower
about 100' from the TV turned the screen red when I was on 15 and had
the antenna at about 260 [over the house].  No problems from about 300
to 230.
