Well, not on RFI since the OM asked for help... I would start by making
chokes out of all wires entering the device. Wrap a half-dozen turns around
your hand in a loop four to five inches across and secure with plastic ties.
See what happens, try a few more or few less turns if the problem persists.
I did this with a monitor that eliminated all radio usage 135' from the
antenna. When I was done, RFI was limited to roughly three inches. I used
spectrum analysis software as I wound my chokes and monitored the RFI with
my primary radio and could see it disappear on the monitor and audibly as I
made the loops. Simple, effective, free, been in use about seven years now.
