AM Broadcasters affected by RFI issues: AFCCE Symposium Examines AM 
Broadcast Band Woes 
<http://www.radioworld.com/article/afcce-symposium-examines-am-broadcast-band-woes/273098> 
. AM broadcasters are calling upon the FCC to help reduce man-made RFI, 
which is negatively impacting their businesses.

Pressure like this can only help. But the reality is that electronics 
manufacturers, power companies, and similar industries all employ 
highly-paid lobbyists making regulation and oversight difficult for the 
FCC to pursue.

DXing from my neighborhood has become so bad that I'm seriously 
considering portable operation using SDR's to record TOH's in 
radio-quiet locations as the only viable means of continuing in the 
hobby. RFI comes from every house, including my own despite intensive 
efforts to reduce or eliminate it.
