Default RE: 2.4 ghz interference: It can happen!

On a lighter note....

I once lived at a small rural airport in south eastern Arizona. The area was really strange radio-wise. I had lots of problems getting my Satellite TV system locked on and working, GPS systems took forever to lock in, etc., etc. This happened before I got 2.4 ghz equipment:

Where I flew my models, there was one distinct spot on the base leg of the landing pattern where for just an instant, the throttle would rev up all by itself. No other glitches, just a quick blip of the throttle. My friends and I laughed about it. It was always right at that same spot, and it happened with nearly all my planes. (Play the Twilight Zone music here....)
