Well I have a long wire up in the attic.

My shortwave reception is much better, but the hum is still there on the upper AM broadcast band. Icon_confused

My next experiment may be to shut off all the breakers and bring them on one at a time to see if I can narrow down the noise source. Icon_idea

It's not how bad you mess up, it's how well you can recover.
