I've sure been down this street a couple of times myself.
I had it on all the lower hf bands (40/80/160) and it is
really a pain. My son works in the computer field, and
told me what cases they use, so I tried one and that
fixed the problem. They are not cheap, but to me well
worth the money. The name of the company is Antec,
and the web address is:
