The interference regulations apply to residential installations. There
is no restriction in commercial installations unless the broadcast
power gets way up there. (The FCC stepped in because of complaints
from the close neighbors of folks running TRS-80 Model Ones (or Apple IIs
or Commodore Pets or S-100 boxen) on the other side of an unshielded wall
from a television with rabbit ear antenna in apartment buildings).
