When I got my PCR-1000 it was pretty unusable mainly because of 
Interference from the Monitor, even when the Aerial was in another room, 
but after changing the RS-232 cable to a screened one from Maplins (UK 
Electronics component supplier), its been OK. If you're getting a lot of 
Interference from your Monitor I would try this.
