I'm deaf in my left ear, and wear (well, it's in the shop) a pair of hearing aid lookalikes. Actually, the left aid is a microphone and RF transmitter, that sends to a receiver in the right ear where the left-side sounds are mixed with the right. I can't wear them in many circumstances because I have "special hearing" that gets overwhelmed. Get me within 5 feet of a Wyse terminal and I hear nothing but squeals. Going into an equipment room, and I might as well turn the aid off. Wonder if any other medical equipment is likely to be affected in a colo? My main regret is I haven't had an opportunity to visit NSA since I got the hearing aids. I want to see how they will cope with a visitor with an unauthorized transmitter in his head.
