I'll continue to experiment, but so far not so good. Comments?




As others have said, you should try to attenuate the noise at its
source. If it is radiated, you need a better PSU. If it is coming
out on the PCs AC line, line filters might help.

If the PC and KGO are not in the same direction, some sort of
directional antenna might help.

Of course, the ultimate solution would be to move to SF and get a
really big signal. But there are problems with that, too: I live abt
3-4 miles west of KNX (50 KW, 1070 KHz) and my problem is avoiding it,
not making it stonger

Yes, I've had that experience with close stations. You can probably
listen to it through the bed springs. :-)


I hope not: Still use a water bed

Attempts to shield the AC with the RS ferrite block and a barbell weight
failed. See comment about household circuit dependency in my just posted
responses above yours.


Got it!
