[UK-CONTEST] Precipitation Static

[Pete Lindsay]

During the this years VHF NFD and the 2m Trophy we were again plagued by
static rain or "precipitation static" QRM. During NFD it affected 6m, 4m and
2m at EI9E/P.
Looking at some of the comments in the claimed scores, many others had the
same problem.
I see that in the states someone sells a "static buster" (
http://www.repeater-builder.com/rbtip/buster.html ). Has anyone ever tried
one of these or anything similar in an attempt to eliminate this type of
annoying QRM?
