The 1026 has a built in pre-amp which may be helpful. The built in antenna is easily removed by just unscrewing it from the feed through, or not putting it on in the first place when you open the box.

I meant to say MFJ-1025, not 1026. The 1026 has a built-in sense antenna
sticking out of the cover, IIRC. What is really needed --unless the noise
is right in your shack-- is a separate antenna that picks up the unwanted
noise MUCH better than the one built-in to the 1026.
