This is a very good Article to Read:
"Is Your Coaxial Lead-In Actually an Antenna ?"
- by John H. Bryant with Bill Bowers, February 2001

However, the suggestion about "TRYING" the Snap-Together
Ferrite Core is a first step and a beginning in what may be a
long journey toward less noise and more signal.

Tip - Try placing Two Snap-Together Ferrite Core 'on'
the Coax Cable from the Antenna to the Receiver :
RadioShack Catalog # 273-105

* One about Three to Six Inches from the PL-259 Plug
going into the Radio.
* One about Three ot Six Inches from the PL-259 Plug
connecting to the Antenna.

That is also why I asked this Question :
"Question - What type - kind of Ground
do you have for the Receiver and Antenna ?"
