Do current 1:1 baluns really work? Do they keep RF out of the coax? I already have a benchers YA-1 low pass filter inline. I'm thinking of buying a MFJ-915.
I'm trying to keep RF away from a neighbors TV set.I had cured the problem with TVI on the neighbors set until I put in some more grounding rods.
I had one ground rod near the pole and the antenna sits at 35' at the bottom. The antenna is a a99.
Now I have the one near the pole and 3 other ground rods about 2ft away from the center rod in a triangle shape. I probably should have gone abit longer like 6ft but because of restricted space I went shorter. What should have I done different?
With these grounding rods in place I've been able to work skip with just 4-10watts. I would like to keep them in place. Just cure the TVI issue. If I have to get rid of the ground rods or add more I guess I'll have to do it.
