..of the noise from RFI and EMI in our environment here is todays tidbit. I recently built a TV antenna that allows me to receive >30 channels over the air free. I got the design from a YT vid (link below)I talked a few months ago to a ham buddy who lives rurally like me who said when he turns on a light with LED bulbs he loses ch 7/9. When I watch the same 9 here and operate my power assisted recliner it drops and I found out today that if my laptop battery gets real low and I plug the charger in that kills 9 too. The battery is charged now and the PS is plugged in but no prob as its current output is low now. Crappy switchers in both cases for me.
So in all these cases these devices ruined TV reception via antenna on antennas far from the TV (30ft here, 120 at my friends) thus proving the problem is the AC line was dirtied by these things.
Lots of ways to combat these issues.......and as important it MUST be done
