This is really not rocket science--it's a simple matter of knowing what you are doing. Please contact me off line. After doing this for 40+ years I have had more than a modicum of sucess........

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions - consensus seems to be that the homebrew chokes are not enough reactance at 1.8 MHz, so I'll get some store bought ones at 220 uH or more. I tried battery power for the whole system, but no difference. I'm going to try battery power for the remote box and omitting the bias tee entirely, at least as a test.
