its not at all touchy.
I've been wearing aids for over 20 years, and I have only come across one
device that caused any kind of interpherence.
It was some sort of scanning device at the front door of an electronics shop
that i used to frequent.
It would basically blank out my hearing as I walked through the
beam...though, i wonder if it wasn't some super high frequency, around
40000HZ that was over loading the microphone amplifier in the aids.
Anyway, radio frequencies do not effect these things whatsoever.
The components are so tiny, and packed inside a shielded housing, that I
don't think anything except sweat can get inside.
