Have some new info to shed on the matter. Set the monitor up in the room in question and of course it experienced 'shake'. Ceiling fan on or off does not make a difference. However, did run power to the monitor from another part of the house - still 'shakes'. Then .... still running in the bedroom but powered from another part of the house, turned off the power circuit to the bedroom ... presto - no shake! My conclusion - somehow power to that room is causing EMI somewhere and my monitor is sensitive to it. Now ... how do I trouble shoot further? I've pulled every plug, switch and fixture to check the wiring (have experience) and they all appear correct to me. Not sure what else I can do ...?
