Hi George, But you wouldn't listen to a boiler deliberately, and I would hazard that RF interference such as the timestat gives off, won't affect it. It certainly doesn't affect my boiler, though it would affect my radios. That was my point. All the best -- Computer Room Services: the long cane for blind computer users.

That depends on what you mean by "radio parts", Steve. Modern boilers do have quite a few "electronic" parts in them.

Hi Trace, That is easy to understand, because your Sonus is a radio. But there are no radio parts in a central heating boiler, or at least, there wasn't when I last looked.
