[sci.electronics] C.B. interference

todd@uop.edu (Dr. Nethack) (03/01/88)

Ok, I have two problems related to the ever popular CB radio.

Problem one...  a P.A. system is getting signal somewhere (not sheilded
or maybe needs to be grounded??) It comes over at the worst times..

General suggestions?

Problem two... similar, a friend has C.B. coming in over the phone
from time to time, in the background, but it is C.B.

Both these sites are near freeways (read: truckers, also with linears).

So what are the defenses that can be set up?

The phone lines and the P.A. lines are running parallel to the freeways
I suspect this could be helping induce the signal.

Can I filter it to ground? Or do I need to replace all the wiring?
(yech).

thanks in advance.

(of course a rifle and a nice tall tree...)  ;-)
