HF keying when refuelling represents fire hazard?
Hello,
FCOM Vol. 1 for 737-800 says: Do not keay the HF radio while the airplane is being fueled. Injury to personnel or fire can occur.

I suppose that this is related to HF radio waves, but why is the HF more dangerous than VFH radio waves? What are the odds that the airplane would catch on fire?
