Re: AM Radio Interference


Hi Chuck,
Thank you very much for your great response.
The interference is throughout the entire house. Regardless where I
plug in the radio. I think it carries through the electrical system.
The house is only 2 years old. Everything is properly grounded
I begin to wonder if there are any PC's on the market, free of this
problem.
Thanks again
Have a great day
Manfred
