1. [RFI] Shielding a ground wire (score: 1)

Does it ever make sense to shield a ground wire? Or is this a silly idea? I'm thinking of trying running coax to my ground rod instead of copper wire. The copper wire is picking up tons of RFI. Aaron

Interesting notion to solve the problem, though I am guessing the RFI experts here may want to look at why your ground wire is getting RFI - both the sources and something about your grounding system

The ground wire is getting RFI because it's all over the house's internal AC wiring. Side note: I haven't yet tracked down any local noise sources because I rent out two apartments and I want to have

That suggests you've got a lot of noise sources around the house. You're going to have to find and kill every one of them. Standard good practice is to address your own home (in this case, your own a

It means that you have voltage on the ground wire , or between the wire and earth, How and where is it getting on the wire. Does the ground wire have a good low resistance earth connection. Don't for

Maybe, the ground wire is a quarter wave in length? Warren; W7WY NO Yes. That suggests that something is seriously wrong with the power wiring and/or grounding in your home, and probably with your an

It's possible, but I'd expect problems on only one band. But I would really look closely at that ground system. Odds are a big problem in it. - Mike - _______________________________________________

Right. In general, a connection EARTH is NOT part of a solution to RFI problems, nor does it make antennas work better (although it CAN provide a current sink for a receiving antenna, the earth is FA

The message from QRO contest stations to quiet reception and smooth operation is GROUNDING. I mean single point grounding. And cables between various devices are provided with ferrite chokes. (mix31?

This is NOT a solution, it is a "band aid." The real CAUSES of the problems you are trying to solve are with improper or inadequate BONDING between equipment, and incomplete antenna systems. There is
