[RFI] FCC issues official citation for well pump RFI on Topband

[Pete Smith N4ZR]

Well, sorta.  My pump iis 270 feet down, and only 55 feet of that is in 
casing.  The rest is bedrock/karst limestone, which is probably adequate 
shielding. The wiring is 2 feet underground until it arrives in my 
basement.  Wouldn't that be an adequate location for filtering?  The 
controller is in the basement, in any case.
