I hate to think I will never be able to use my new hobby at my retirement home with inverter power. The SW5548 inverters were the most advanced Xantrex offered in 2005. I purchased an "Audio/Visual" line filter (48dB) at the big electronics store and it had no effect against the dimmer noise. I just got a 38-15 on Ebay so when I was ordering caps on JustRadios I read the Safety cap section. I previously checked the bakelite line caps on the 40-180 and they measured OK.

1. Should I replace them with new Y2 Safety caps anyway?
2. Would it help to add an X2 cap across the lines and what value?
3. Would a comercial power line filter like this help? Lots on Ebay.
