What tips and tricks do people have for dealing with power line interference?
My test beach has a few high voltage power lines overhead. At two spots under the lines, my R-class will stall if it is oriented the right way. This was a very repeatable thing. In one case the sub was perpendicular, in the other parallel to the lines. Happened 4 or 5 times in both spots. Turning the radio did not help.
Note, I still have the short antenna wire on my receiver. it is about to get extended to a full wavelength. I'm adding a sealed silicon rubber rat tail (with the antenna wire inside it) to the WTC and laying the antenna along the length of the hull over the WTC.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks!
