Yes, she'd have to turn off (or maybe even unplug) the digital cable box to stop whatever its doing. I think even when the box is turned " off " , it is downloading TV Guide information, etc. Marc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PUK replies - If the box is still hooked up to the system in particular the data delivery cable it might lead to the box broadcasting frequencies from the cable evan when not plugged in - time to try the AM radio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 A lot of electronics seem to still give off stuff when they're plugged in but not turned on. Some older TV picture tubes can get magnetized and affect me even when they are not plugged in!
