Hi John;
I had many many interference problems at a prior qth and telephone problems
were the one problem that could be fixed. If you get the right tech person
from the phone company it can be done.
As for cable tv, that was another issue.

Subject: Re: antennas radials and what to
The radials might help, but 75 meters has been strange like that for a while
now. Seems like here about 5:25 PM Eastern time we lose 75 meters completely
as far as the local nets and stuff and even later on, sometimes the signals
are so up and down you need an amp to really communicate. Unfortunately,
that's the band my amp bothers the neighbor's phone lines on and I don't
feel like fighting with the phone company to fix their problem where I
probably won't be here a real long time so I'm just getting rid of the amp
for now. I'd hate to move with it anyway, but anyway, it could just be
conditions though I'm sure the radials won't hurt.
