[Elecraft] Interference from Computers

Move the "shack" to the great outdoors to operate from a nice portable quiet location.  Our local township park (only bad part of mine is the HV power distribution wires running right through it, about 300 feet from our favorite tall tree -- aka antenna support, and a picnic table) is fairly quiet.  I've taken the radio out along the Appalachian Trail (thanks to the EPA QRP Club) as well, talk about quiet!  All of that fun outdoor operating doesn't take away from Field Day, though, that is still fun too.
