[Elecraft] Dish/Direct TV RFI?

[John K9UWA]

Hi Reed

YES !  DirecTV receivers are horrible racket makers. 
#1 I built a new power cord for the receivers wired into a 12V ASTRON regulated 
12v supply. No More Switcher Wall Warts allowed at my QTH.

#2 The HDMI cable from the Rcvr to the TV set has 12 turns through a stack of 
TWO of the 2.4" diameter Ferrite #31 mix cores. 

Several other 12v devices are also connected to that same Astron supply. 
Modem, Router etc. Now that rcvr is quiet.
