My neighbor installed a CB radio antenna and now I am picking up his
conversations via my computer speakers and answering machine. This has
gotten to be a really big problem for me and my family. It even
interferes with our fire radios.

Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how to fix it. (Short of
going over and cutting the wires!?)

Thanks in advance,

Jade

Drop a .001 capacitor across the two wire of the phone line (red and green)
at each jack, this should eliminate the rf on the phone, maybe cure the
computer speakers (if the rf is comming through the phone jack to the
modem.)
What is a "fire radio" ?????

It is the responsibilty of the CB'er to get rid of the interference,
especially interference (if it is a) on a commercial "fire" radio.
Sounds to me that the CB'er does not have proper grounding or his
antenna is too low.

What the hell does grounding have to do with interference, Antenna to low?
hell put it up 300 feet high this should help.
I bet he is using POWER, dam CBer.
Better yet get yourself a CB and put up a antenna , I bet he gives up as his
receiver will be overloaded with your radio. Fight fire with fire as you
know.

It's more likely that the fire receiver and/or computer is not properly
grounded. However it still isn't your responsibility to fix the problem.
Legal or not it's his responsibility since it's happening to emergency
communication equipment.

Transmitters of any type can create interference. It is not the
responsibility of the CB'er to get rid of the interference as long
as he is being legal.

It happens that formulated :
as he is being legal.

Dh talked to the guy last night and wouldn't you know it . He is not
using legal equipment! Some people!!

Needless to say for the pass 2 nights we have had no problems what so
ever. I have made recodings of him conversatosn as they come over our
speakers just in case we need it to prove us case. Dh said he was
none to happy about finding out we could hear every thing (and I do
mean everything) he has said. ^^

If you are interfering with emergency equipment it's ALWAYS your
responsibility to fix it. Even if it means stopping your transmitting
altogether. Emergency equipment ALWAYS takes precedence.

Have you made him aware there is a problem? Maybe he would work with
you to rectify it.
