just so you know my tv had a channel finder it just skims on channel till it finds on that comes in. So you may need a tv like that cause It may not be an actual channel it coulb be between two or something

Do you think there would be a difference in quality between the use of a ds phat and a ds lite?

I dont know I only tested it on my phat

I just tried it on both. When I used my regular ds, The tv would deffenitly show something. If I used my ds lite, there would only be slight interference. I found the signal to be clearest on Vhf H on a low channel.

Thx for the extra info. Hey someone out there should figure out why this happens!

I can't imagine wifi signals being much different then radio waves, which is what that little tv probably picks up. It's all one big electromagnetic spectrum. But as to why the ds is emitting waves when its not in wifi mode is very interesting.

thats most likely

I just tried this on my Original DS with a portable black and white TV, set it to UHF, and tuned around until I found it. Works like a charm.

Oh, and WIFI signals ARE radio waves at 802.11b (or g) but thats not whats interfering. WIFI doesn't have to be on for this to work...
