Jim:

After reviewing the above link (and downloading it), it seems quite obvious 
that I have one hell of a lot of work to do.

Can you suggest a source for flat wide copper "tape" ? 

And for copper braid, other than from old coax? (I suspect braid from old 
coax will not be wide enough, and if it is corroded, the individualy strands of 
copper may be insulated from one another.)

So....it appears that my moving that useless 30+ feet of #8 "ground" wire DID 
reduce my local noise level by a good 10 dB.

I would never have thought of that in a million years.
