Cushcraft MA5B Noise floor?
David Inscribed thus:
Hi all
I took down the antenna and I could not find any fault with it. I
decided to move the antenna down the bottom of my garden @ 20ft off
the ground and hay presto. Every thing is working 100%. All my hiss is
gone. I can only think that it must have been caused by some thing
very near to my house.
Thanks all
I'm now a happy chappy.

The one that I have used is the acetic acid cured silicone.
Then it is corrosive on aluminium. The galvanic currents created may
be causing or contributing to your noise problem.
I would be removing the stuff, difficult as it is to do, but if it
is in contact with metal, it is not suited to your application.

Ok Owen. I will remove it as soon as I get the time to bring it back
down to ground level.
Thanks
Its surprising how much noise and interference is generated by or in our
own home.
