MOV's are, indeed, a potential cause of RFI. Here's how. When it's working properly, an MOV (metal oxide varistor) has the charactistic of conducting above some threshold voltage but being an open ci

Yes, these are some pretty high field strengths. Are you sure they are correctly measured? I suspect they are not. Perhaps your antenna is influencing the measurement. Exactly how far are you from th

Where have ferrites been tried, what specific types, and how have they been used? The basic function of a ferrite in RFI suppression is to turn the cable that you use it on into a choke. At higher fr

Hmmm. Are you putting a choke on the ground lead? Doesn't that prevent the protection it SHOULD provide for HF transients like lightning and power line misbehavior? I can't imagine that being blessed
