Very interesting. I own a Precor treadmill. I just went down and tested it. No interference at all on 20. Didn't check anything else.
Didn't pay $4500 for it either. Got it from a dealer friend of mine. It was a new one that never worked so it sat in the warehouse. He said I could have it if I could fix it. In 10 minutes I found a bad RJ-45 connector. Works great now. Maybe I should put a small shelf on it so I can work treadmill mobile. Any lawyers out there? In a situation like this where a device's design and construction creates interference, does the owner have all the abatement responsibility or does the manufacturer retain the responsibility as they manufactured a defective device incapable of being operated legally?
