I know of one installation that is just below (10 feet) a 50,000 watt
fm transmitter in Portsmouth, NH.  I don't think you'll have trouble.
I'd be more worried about the automatic door openers and 2.4 GHz
phones.

Anyone know about the compatibility of high-voltage DC systems and
802.11b?
The gear itself will be running on 120VAC via an inverter, but
600VDC/300A
creates a strong EM field that messes with a lot of off-the-shelf RF
gear
and even some non-RF electronics.
