So... His equipment wasn't interfering. You did read the article right?After receiving the notice, which cites Canada’s Radiocommunications Act, Baker says he invited federal officials inside his home to check out the radio equipment.
“They found out it wasn’t interfering with any of the stations they’re using

Derek Mellon, a spokesperson for ISED, told CTV Kitchener that the order was made after “several interferences reported by aircraft prior to landing at Kitchener/Waterloo airport.”

I find it improbable that an FM band transmitter with a range of 150 feet would have spurious signals in the next band up (118-138 MHz) strong enough to be a concern, much less heard by aircraft. Weird story.

Truthfully, the neighbors across from my Mom and Dad had this a number of years ago, and I thought it would drive us nuts. That bing-bing-bing child's xylophone type music is quite cute in time with the flashing lights when you drive by and stop for a few minutes, but when you can hear it inside for hours on end, it makes you want to rip your ears off!
