I have several of the little things and my experience is about the
same. The real noisemakers at my QTH are switching power supplies such
as in my TiVO and Dish Network receivers and my TV, which is always on
because of the remote.
My antenna is about 100 feet line of sight from any of them and it
picks up none of this noise at all, but a portable AM broadcast radio
inside the house just gets torn up unless the signals are pretty
strong.
