I'm an EMT with our local volunteer ambulance corps. When there is an emergency 
the crew on duty is summoned with a pager that beeps, then announces 
information about the emergency. The police department dispatcher sends out 
this information.
I have been experiencing intermittent pager failures and was told that my 
computer monitor may interfere with my pager. Is this true? How can I prevent 
this from happening? It's really awful to miss a call!
