[Elecraft] S6 noise floor?

For this to work, you would have to also put your antenna inside this  
RF proof room but then you might not work many stations.

Aside from installing ferrite on all cables (not sure why this isn't
integrated somehow if it's that large of an issue) would having the shack
walls lined with a grounded screen help reduce/eliminate radio noise?

Is the cost/effort worth it?

My wife and I are planning to build a house in a few years and I'm planning
out my station.

Based on the noise issues I have and have researched it sounds like I need a
shielded room where all cables in/out are wrapped in ferrite and power is
routed through a 1:1 transformer OR true sine wave UPS.

Then I still have to deal with computer equipment noise and anything else to
get a clean signal where the ground noise is low.
