I like to use my computer to translate CW and record shortwave. However, the
computer throws out a lot of RFI. If I build a Faraday cage around it, will

Building a Faraday cage around the computer would be a lot of work. Most
of the noise is radiated from the cabling so use ferrite common mode
chokes on the cables.
