Default RF gets into computer

Good advice Yuri...
But, I think the first thing he needs to do is get some aluminum roof
flashing from Home Depot and cover the top of the operating bench with
it and set the equipment on the flashing... Ground every piece of gear
to the flashing with short connections... THen hang a quarter wave of
wire off the flashing (68 feet for 80/75) - which becomes an RF
counterpoise, and route it down the hall, or out a wind0w, anywhere to
get the far end as far away as possible from the computer and the
110/220 electrical wiring in that room...
Another trick is to use a small antenna tuner as the ground radial
tuner - I prefer simply cutting the RF counterpoise to a quarter
wave, cheaper too...
The next thing is to get the Logic Tech wireless keyboard and mouse...

Hi Bob,

That question is apocryphal. I remember installing Windows 3 and
having one hell of a time getting the mouse to work. I called the M$
help line and they marched me through the complete install.

They pondered my problems and finally asked:
"What mouse I are you using?"
Me:
"A Microsoft mouse."
The voice of the blue screen:
"Microsoft mice are not compatible with Windows."

There was an object lesson there I will never forget.

THAT might have explaination for! MY Mouse
(wireless), has 2 channels available, and
BOTH are C.B. channels! (think ch. 13, and 14
) Might try holding down a key, while tuneing
11 meters? Also, could have harmonic of 75,
on 7th harmonic hitting it ?? Aprox. 3868 kc
for the guy with a problem with his wireless
keyboard? Jim NN7K
