Merlin glad I could help. If you only have the one problem try the simple things first. I would try just the artificial ground first unless you're having more troubles than that. I tried the cap across the speaker leads and it didn't help my case, but I was having quite a few troubles to begin with.You should give that a try first. I used 8ga speaker wires from "Monster Cable" like that you'd get at Best Buy. A ham operator recommended that. It was so much easier to handle than solid wire. There's a post on the back of the MFJ unit. I ran three of those wires about 12' long about a foot apart along the wall. I've got a copper pipe setup that's 3/4 inch copper in an H pattern about a 18" tall. I've got the artificial ground to it as well. From that I've got the 9913 coax from that to the grounds outside. I didn't have to many troubles straight radio mainly when I ran some power. I had TV troubles, but mainly because of the cheap wiring I believe in my house. I bought the MFJ low pass about the size of one pictured, about 8" long by 3" wide. It helped some, same specs as the Henry, but not the quality. That Henry took 3 weeks to get, but it's the size of the X600 Xbox and the the way it's built inside is night and day. I'm not really up on the low pass filters, but this one made the difference. Again I was getting desperate for a fix so you may not need that. These guys in the know are probably snickering at what I did, but I was desperate. I would try that MFJ artificial ground first since it made quite a bit of difference. If you can get it cheap I would go for it. It has a meter to show you how much is going through it. When I kick the amp on, quite a bit shows. BTW.... be sure to tape the ends of the radial wires, I'm sure you could get bit by those. Talks about that in the instructions.
Hope this helps.
