A side benefit was a drop off with white noise. I can hear them week DX
stations better. This was a step in the right direction.
I had 3 rounds with the FCC since 1968. With no restrictions. There is not
a day that goes by that I do not think about RFI and what I have not tried that
just might work.
I have coils of coax at the feed point of each antenna. That bad side of it
is I coiled it like rope and electrical taped it. I need some of those 8"
diameter plastic coffee cans and wind the cable around those and make a better
choke.
The shielded ground helped a bunch a few years ago. You can go 30, 40 feet
with one, and is worth the effort. The trick is to eliminate the RF ground
loops. Tuff to do at times, and every ones situation is different. Consumer
products keep getting worse.
