    I experienced the same thing in my teen years. The shortwave signal didn't interfere significantly when I played my music but you could hear his broadcast with my stereo off. I was able to block it eventually by shielding my speaker leads.

    That said, I don't think there is much you could do legally to induce feedback in your neighbor's system.

    The probably have the speakers on the floor and that transmits the vibrations. Ask them to put the speakers on bricks. I lived in an apartment and the stereo the gal upstairs played really thumped with bass. After banging on the door a number of times I finally told her to get some bricks and put her stereo speakers on bricks. We both were happy after that.

    Well since FM transmission seems to be prohibited....

    What about that spark generator? Can it be done with 9 volts? Y'know something compact and cheap?

    9 volts might do but a 12 volt battery will keep a charge longer
