I have ordered some toroids from MFJ, hope they will stop some of the tvi.

repositioned the 25 foot random wire slightly ( and lifted up the aluminum blinds!), much better matching now.

dc ground is a connection to the hot water heat pipes in the apartment, that dropped the noise level a noticeable amount, but its still way high.

I would like to get a screwdriver type antenna, depends on how much money I make in the next 2 months ( got a temp job doing tax returns till April 15).

has anybody used the MFJ apartment antenna? this is the basic unit that tunes with clips on the coil. its rated highly, thinking about it for both the apartment and the 5er.
