Mr. Adrenaline, forgive my ignorance if this is totally off, but aren't all those various forms of avionics somewhat shielded from extraneous signals? And don't they emit some themselves?

I can envision lots of instances where 747's would be continuously or intermittently exposed to all sorts of signals, across the spectrum, which can't be controlled or prevented -- ranging from a ground crew's walkie talkies while the plane is leaving the gate to an F117 stealth near-miss high in the skies. Radar. TV and radio stations. Cell towers. Police transceivers. Ham radio. etc. etc. Have all these circumstances been tested and proven 100%? Do the 747's fuel gauges act up under any of these circumstances, or is this really just a red herring? Inquiring minds want to know.
