Go back and CAREFULLY read what I wrote about bonding everything together by SHORT, FAT COPPER. That means a foot or two of #12 run DIRECTLY from the computer to the radio, another from the computer to the DigiKeyer, another from the DigiKeyer to the radio.

A connection to EARTH is NOT part of a solution to RFI, nor to hum and buzz. A connection to earth is important, but ONLY for lightning protection.
