I would like to relate my experience. As you
did, I carefully selected a new computer case
and power supply from the stock at redacted,
paying careful attention to the FCC logo on the
power supply. After moving the mother board
over and turning it on, it completely wiped
out reception of the local 5kW station on 550 kHz.
Fortunately, I had picked up a couple of surplus
Corcom line filters (Model # 10ESK7)at a local
hamfest three years earlier (it pays to collect
junk). I spliced it into the computer power
cord and it cured the problem completely.

I don't have any experience with the Radio
Shack line filter (Catalog # 15-1111), but it
looks like it might do the job for you.

The RShk ferrite rectangles didn't help. Interesting about the Corcom
filters. I'm going down to a radio shop on Friday, HSC in Sacramento. Maybe
I can find something there.

I just checked Google with "Corcom line filters Model # 10ESK7" and found
some hits. Look like maybe they are $5.00.

Interesting finding about the width of the noise on a msg I just posted a
few minutes ago.
