If you have an older set of wireless headphones (infrared),  place the
wireless  transmitter in front of the tellie then turn the remote on,
you will get an earful of continuos "hash" in your ears. 

That should give you an idea.

When you turn your head away from the screen, the noise is reduced,
(but the audio drops out because of line-of-site limitation of
infrared).

BTW:
My Sony (not a plasma) generates "hash" with my old headset but does not
cause interference to ham radio.
Because of the above, I bought a more recent headset that is not
affected with these problems.

I am almost deaf and need the headphones when CC is not on, to "hear"
the tellie.
