Not so, if the ham's signal is clean, no harmonics, no spurious energy,
within the power limits, operating according to FCC rules, and the TV
cannot reject out of band rf energy, it is the fault of the TV, not the
ham and he is perfectly within his rights to keep operating. Same for
any CB operator. If your logic made any sense, then if I complained to
you that you driving your car by my house interfers with my afternoon
nap, then it is your fault. I can't get my nap because you now knowingly
(and therefore 'willingly') interfer with my nap (disturbing the peace),
so I should be able to have you stopped from driving by my house.
Oh, you say I should better insulate my house against noise? Like maybe
the TV owner should fix his crappy TV so it does not pick up unwanted
signals?

and those neighbors should be bitching
to the television stations who would set that ham straight in a damn hurry.

And the tv station can't do a single thing but complain to the FCC.

They may also have the right to file a civil complaint against him for causing a
private or public nuisance, which may be perfectly valid -regardless- of how
legal he is under Title 47.

Civil authority has no jurisdiction over an FCC licensed ham station.
