Shut off the computer.  ARF, Arf, arf... Hey, I can hear my neighbor's PC
on my Corsair!  You may want to try one of the noise cancelling devices
that you stick between the antenna and the rig.  I have the AC-4 and it
works well.  MFJ makes one, too.

Or you could trade the Omni in on a Kenwood.  A TS-440 will probably
not hear the computer - or other weak signals, either :-)
