Thanks everyone for your input. Very helpful.

Although my computer affects certain frequencies a little bit,the coax fed
outside antenna to my DX392 helps.

For my little radios I carry around the house (B&H, jWIN, eTR7), I have to

turn
off my monitor. It's a Proview and should be required to have an FCC

license as
a transmitter.

I had a strange problem, regarding my little radios. Although my computer

and
monitor were on, there was no noise interferring with the stronger SW

stations.
Then I plugged in my modem line to the phone circuit. (I had it

disconnected
because of nearby lightning strikes.) This was at the opposite end of a

long
run from the computer. The monitor noise was loud. Apparently, with the

modem
line unloaded, there wasn't much radiation, despite the line running past

the
little radio in use at the time.
