When my workstation was converted to a mythbackend, I left a Vantec  
fan-controller in the machine because I didnt want to bother  
disconnecting it, and put the machine in the basement.

We put in a new garage door opener last week, and could not get the  
openers to work beyond a few feet.

The vantec fan controller was putting out enough RFI to interfere with  
a garage opener 20 feet away. Removed the fan controller, and all is  
well.
