The dirtiest noise comes from a cheap power supply in the pc. I used to shut off a machine to dx AM ststions, it was that bad in another room. I replaced the ps.

I was listening to a guy (Timtron) on shortwave talking about how he tracked down the worst noise in the station to a ps,
took it apart, and saw that the manufacturer wired the connections on the pcb that were silk screened for caps.
He installed some appropriate capacitors to take care of the problem. Actually, I've put my Palm T|E next to an AM radio and got noise.

Wait til the new refrigerators scan the UPC labels of your food, and beam them back to the databases! Will you be scared then?

When your health insurance company sees a 12 pack of beer located in your refrigerator?

Or disconnect your rig (power supply) from the same circuit your puter is on. Worked for me -
