    Bob and all:

Sorry, no joy on the RFI saga yet.

I started calling CQ on 20 meters, and the RFI came back.

I really think it's coming through the PC.

I'm now becoming convinced that this old PC I have is extremely susseptible 
to RFI.  You may recall that I didn't have any of these problems until I 
started working with that computer, trying to make it into a ham radio only 
computer.

Let me re-group here, and I'll get back to everyone.

I'm going to completely remove the computer, and everything associated with 
it, returning things back to where they were before I started messing with 
it.

Will be back to everyone soon.
