I'm currently working on a project where a couple of computer monitors are picking up a magnetic field from somewhere. There are 2 computers at one of the stations and only one monitor is experiencing the problem. I monitored the voltage at the cubicle and ran a Gauss meter through the area and everything checks out fine. If you open the desk drawers below the screen the problem gets worse or if you pick up the screen and take it near the top of the cubicle the problem gets worse. There are only 2 monitors in the building that are doing this and they are on the second floor of a 3 story building and are about 100-150 feet away from each other. The building is being used a by a large cell phone company and they used an RF meter and still found no problem. The best ideas that I have come up with are that the cubicles themselves have become magnetized or the computers are sitting in "hot spots". Any ideas or comments would be a great help.
