[Elecraft] Quiet Ductless HVAC System

[Clay Autery]

As I understand it....  ANY part of the HVAC system that uses a motor or 
reciprocating drive mechanism that runs off AC current.  Anything that 
runs off DC current that is sourced from AC current via a switch mode 
power supply, any part of the system that has an ECM, et al. electronic 
"futzing" device that might produce an oscillating signal.

MOSTLY the air handling unit usually, and specifically the variable 
frequency drives, electronic control modules, et al.... whatever they 
are called....  NOT properly filtered, wired, suppressed, then they can 
be a source of RFI.
