Hi.Guys,I have been plagued by a terrible arcing type noise only on 1.800
thru 1.827. It completely disappears above and below that frequency. Today was
the day of reckoning I took a portable ham receiver and walked the
neighborhood .I had started about a 1/2 mile away and worked my way back to my qth as
I got closer the noise was stronger at my neighbors house it peaked.it turns
out the cable drop ground wire was a big ground loop causing the problem
after a few ferrites and a new single point ground for his cable and telco
service all is quiet here. a thanks goes out to w8ji for the tip off I have been
following has tips on his home page and thank god for a guy like w8ji 73
