As for other rfi, once while waiting  for others to board a flight from 
Denver to Newark, I was speaking with the flight engineer requesting permission
to "listen only" to my 2 meter ht during the flight.  His comments were
interesting ... He said that many times hand calculators and electronic games
used by passengers during flights presented a significant interference
problem to the instruments.  He said that some times, some electronic games
were so bad that they had to walk through the cabin looking for the offensive
device and request that the passenger turn it off!
