 What you describe is not a station *causing* harmful interference, but
 a station merely acting as the catalyst to expose defective receive
 equipment.
 In my mind, not even a similar situation.

 Again....

 The rules talk about harmful interference to any other licensed service
 or station, and I'm glad they do !

 The rules do *not* talk about the content of such other service or station,
 and I'm glad they don't !

 While it may seem blindingly apparent to you and/or I, that dispatching a fire
 brigade, or warning an aircraft of an impending collision might be a tad more
 important than "Elliot in the Morning" I for one do not want the government
 or any of the government's agents making that content determination.
 That would be a form of censorship, direct or reverse. Freedom loving
 Americans ( those that can remember freedom anyway ) already have a
 problem with the government's heavy handed treatment of things not
 considered politically correct. To make selective exception goes a bit
 far for me.
