Ditto Exactly what I was just thinkin. In todays world almost anything
that plugs in or even on batteries can cause subtle problems like this.
Basically they are all little interference transmitters due to cheap design,
quality, & failures. It can get into the set via the line, antenna or directly
into the chassis. 3 case histories ...........
1) When I sent CW it would turn one of my Zeniths on & off.
A better ground for the transceiver fixed that.
2) Brand new Zenith had lines on all low channels not on old set.
(It actually did but wasnt sharp enuf to see them much) It was the
only set on ears. Cure was a calculator was upstairs recharging.
3) Just had a planned black out. What to do ? Listen to AM radio !
Almost every channel had a listenable signal as far as 300 miles
daytime. When the power came back it went back to just a few powerful
locals & lots of garbage.
enuf fer now
