Hi..i am a new user here. In my case I had a major reduction in noise when I grounded all of my equipment together with short pieces of coax braid I had salvaged and made into straps. These were connected by hose clamps to a copper pipe that runs the length of the radio table. Then earth ground is connected to the pipe. This is all in the ARRL Operators Manual. And vertical antennas are inherently noisy, because a lot of noise is vertically polarized, such as lightning.
