The router has been replaced since, but I misspoke. It was the modem that was making most of the racket. It belongs to the cable company but there's no security screws, so I took it apart and changed the bridge bypass cap, and that took about half the noise from that contraption.

Yes, the motion sensor fixtures are a big contributor and I should replace those soon. I notice that when I pull into my driveway, the AM is fine until I pull up closer to the garage where the lights are, and the noise totally wipes out anything except the local station one town over.

My alarm system is also a significant noise maker. I was going to try putting some ferrite loops on the keypad wiring and see if that helps quiet the alarm system down.

It's always something I plan to tackle but somehow never get around to it!
