In my case my DX-20 had not yet been on the air when the neighbor across 
the street complained about me wiping out his stereo system just after 
my Dad helped me put up a 40m vertical up on the roof.  After the 
neighbor found out I did not even have my transmitter he stopped 
complaining. Word got out ( my Dad?) and no one in the neighborhood ever 
complained again.
