If you have pole-provided power, have the power company check the poles for ground line vandalism. Every few poles there is a ground strap that provides either a neutral system ground, or earth ground for lightning arrest. Copper scavengers love to chop as much of the ground straps off of the poles as they can reach. In the latter case, it is possible that your home may have a neutral ground that, because of missing local pole grounds, is miles away. The long neutral then becomes an antenna. The power company will gladly fix it.Personally, I like lotsa foil on the windows... ;)-Bruce D.On Sunday, August 3, 2014 1:01 AM, "lsf5275@aol.com [newmellotrongroup]" <newmellotrongroup@yahoogroups.com> wrote:

I live in a semi-rural area and my home has five broadcast towers within a half mile or a bit more. I get radio on my trons and some of the other older gear. I think the grounding of my household is suspect as well.FrankIn a message dated 8/2/2014 6:20:48 P.M.
