Cleaning up the messed-up

I think a lot of the MW garbage I receive on 160m, etc, is
generated much the same way. I've even seen people say
that semi corroded stranded copper wire, even insulated
can cause problems like that. And...I've been seeing stronger
and stronger MW energy here every year it seems... I'm starting
to wonder if the standed wire theory may not be too far fetched,
as most all my wire is stranded, and most is getting some age
on it. I also seen to notice even the water heater or pipes seem
to generate spurious MW energy.. Been driving me crazy the last
few years, and seems to be slowly getting worse.
Not to mention all the other sources of trouble like fences, guy
wires, bad connections, etc.
I don't doubt bad radials could cause that for a minute...I've seen
things like that around here in mildew city from all kinds of bad
connections.. Once had a bad "rf in the shack" problem...Turned
out to be nothing more than corroded/rusted balun hardware at
the antenna feedpoint. Cleaned that up, bingo, all gone. MK

IMD is going to be the least of our problems as the proliferation of
garbage-generating devices continues.

Soon your toothbrush will have an RFID tag, a switching power supply
and a bluetooth link to the toothpaste dispenser.

The tires on your car have RFID tags that will be queried when you
drive by a cell phone site and your GPS-enabled cell phone will report
your speed and a ticket will emailed to you automatically. No need to
respond though, your credit card has already been billed and your
photo is on the perp website.
