In Chicago I'm hearing what could be one signal with sidebands or multiple signals. It's moderately unstable (or has FM-like components) and sounds a lot like many signals that I hear scattered aroun

Thanks for the link, Rob. It's useful to know what options are available. One of the toroids I recommended costs $10-$12, depending on where you buy it. I would try a toroid before I spent more than

The shielding enclosure of most electronics is a reasonable ground reference. A 747 has no connection to earth, but the shielding on its wiring works just fine. And even if that receiver had a 2-pron

I can do both. It's called "shield-current-induced noise," (SCIN). It was first described by Neil Muncy (ex-W3WJE) in an AES paper in 1994, based on research he did only at audio frequencies. I've do

If you go high enough in frequency it appears to do exactly what you think. It's just that it appears to simplify to that at a higher frequency than you think. Yes. When I have time, I intend to look

No, I'm sorry that I can't do that. When you publish with AES, they have distribution rights. I don't get any of the money. I can promise you that the papers are worth your time and money if you are

I'm sorry that you feel that way. I paid about $80 for my copy of Henry Ott's book, a bit less (per book) for "Antennas" by John Kraus, for the IEEE Emerald Book and Green Book, and for Tsaloviovich'

I do not. These papers are not math-filled tomes. They were written for audio engineers, many of whom have limited understanding of RF issues, so there is much in them of a tutorial nature. There's n

Sounds like a really severe case! I suspect either power line or antenna line coupling, and I suspect the filters you are using are ineffective below 20 meters. The 43 material is primarily a VHF mat
